Favale Research Update

DECEMBER 2004 Update

 

Joel, our Italian researcher, has been to Favale October 2004.  Included is a photo of the bookshelf that holds the old parish records and a photo of an old parish book.  Four people joined our research group for this trip and Joel was successful for each individual.
