My great grandmother passed away in 1909 after giving birth to a son Giuseppe. It's so sad, she gave birth to four healthy children in Italy, then she comes to Lawrence, Ma. and passes away after giving birth from unsanitary conditions!
This breaks my heart but that is the past. My grandmother grieved for her mother her entire life. And for that of her baby brother who didn't make it because of starvation in a poor house in Stoughton, Mass.
Carmella had a sister Anna. Does anyone out there know of an Anna Sava? At one time she was also from Lawrence, Ma. I know nothing of the Sava family and would love to add some of the family history into my family tree.
Thank you, Julie
