Memoirs

 

 

“Memoirs”  are  memento cards printed  at time of departure of a relative . Cards depict a picture of the relative , its registrar’s office data , a concise poetical reference to its life , departure and loved people . Cards are widely distributed during the funeral ceremony  to friends , acquaintances , whoever knew that  person.  This custom is a normal habit in the Trentino-Alto Adige Region  as well as in many other Regions of Italy . It is also done in USA and in Argentina .

Fronte

Memoirs are also important  to professional genealogical researchers . In some cases , aside from birth and death dates other useful information can be found such as the name of the consort and sons. The Card is a small dowel of a genealogical tree.  Right now I have archived more than 1.500 Memoirs , half of them original and half copies .  This collection has been made possible thanks to the contribution of personal archives from various people to whom I’d like to extend my deepest gratitude.

This part is still undergoing a non stop evolution .  Any voluntary contribution with original or copied Memoirs is welcomed .
