THIS SECTION REMAINS VERY MUCH ON PAPER,as info is always building up gradually,

BUT THERE ARE SOME "COMPLETED" BITS (like the piece on the "English Minolettis", however much they will be added to),

AND SOME VERY MUCH IN THE PROCESS OF CREATION & COMPILATION (like the research started on Christine's East Midlands ancestors, also below)

- JUST FOLLOW THE LINKS WHEREVER THEY TAKE YOU, AND WE continue to ADD & UPDATE AS & WHEN WE CAN

Have a look (via the "Read..." button below), though, in these Gallery albums for images related  to articles or giving some more peripheral info (click on the red title-links):

          Andrewses … Rolleses … Gibsons ... and also Wilsons

                        (AND NOW WADES) ,

especially after -

    Christine had found connections in Stamford with the Wilsons (her paternal grandma's family); quite by chance we parked outside the house (click to see in Gallery) where her great grandfather had been recorded as a boot boy in the 1871 census - so more to follow up on this, which we are in the process of doing via books lent us by Mrs Ivy Price of Barrowden -

KEEP WATCHING THIS SPACE (follow "Read" link below  to see addition about WADES in blue panels) !

It seems very clear that my grandfather, Luigi Minoletti, was born in Cannero, and a now-deceased aunt (Margery, one of his children), when visiting Cannero (before the 1939-45 War), had established contact with at least one cousin who acknowledged this relationship, although attempts there to make any clear connections on holidays there recently seem to meet a polite brick wall. It is therefore hard to guess at which generation the “English Minolettis” are connected to the “Cannero Minolettis”, so I have started the family tree, which you can see via the "Read more..." button below with two hypothetical generations, no doubt going back into the early 19th Century.
