Ciao Pino! I recently spent the afternoon with my father’s 91 year old cousin. My father passed away a few years ago at age 93. They are both grandsons of the Bertorelli family that moved to the U.S. in approximately 1901 from Montastero di Gravaga. My father’s cousin gave me several old photos of the area including the church in which my great grandparents were married and my grandmother, born in 1896, was baptized. The church was shown in your video! I loved watching it. I’m wondering if our families are related. I hope to travel to Montastero Di Gravaga in the near future. I hope to hear from you. - Jane
Presto verrò in val Noveglia per compiere alcuni sopralluoghi per una ricerca storica sulla Via Francigena. Complimenti è una valle bellissima e ricca di storia!

My fathers mother was a Bertorelli from Bardhi. She immigrated to N.Y. in 1911. Ciao!

In Val Noveglia : Via degli Abati. :)
Bello. Che altitudine hanno queste colline?
Grazie! Hai ragione: Predario non va dimenticato! Perche' non metti tu... un bel video sul "borgo di Lucia" (mia cugina!).
Ciao
Pino
