Surnames: Luporini, Luporino, Belluomini
Hello everyone! I'd be grateful if someone can help me with this, because I speak no French and don't know much about the geography there either!
I am looking for the birth record of my 2nd great grandmother, Margherita Luporini OR possibly Luporino. Several papers claimed that she was born in Marseille, in 1883. I have reason to believe her mother's name was Leonida Belluomini.

I'm not sure what she was doing in France, as she is actually Italian, so I don't know how long her family lived there or anything like that. I only have the name, and the birth year, and that is all! Any information you can give me would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Hello!

I found the birth record for you which I'm attaching. It's not the clearest copy and the handwriting isn't all that easy to read. It basically says that Marguerite Luparini was born on 31 March 1883 at 2.40 in the morning to Archange Luporini, age 38, a sawyer, from Liguria, Italy and to Leonide Belluomini, age 30. I'm not sure of the witnesses given names but the first one's surname is Bertolozzi, age 25, and the other looks like Rovai, age 23.

I checked the records to see if there were any other Luporini births before or after Marguerite's in Marseille but didn't find any.

Let me know if I can help any further.

Cheers,

Soosi

Almost forgot: there was a large influx of Italians to Marseille in the late 1800s due to economic and political reasons. Today about one-third of the people living in Marseille are of Italian origin.
