Thank you for info on Bianchi family. I can now confirm that Francesco Britti died in Italy about 1981 and his wife Vera died in Italy just a few months ago . Francesco Britti was a prisoner of war in Russia WW2 Thanks to everyone helping.

Hi again. A bit more info for Francesco Britti His actual date of birth in Italy was 23rd February 1915 and he died in Italy on 18th November 1981. I don't have any copies of the certificates so do not know names of his Parents. My good friend is the Grandaughter of Francesco and we are working on this together as my friend is not fluent in English. Hope we can work back from Francesco. There are lots of Britti travelling on Passenger ships to America etc but don't know yet if any are for this tree. Francesco did have maybe up to 10 siblings. Many thanks to everyone helping. Francesco was from the Abruzzo region in the city of Pescara. Kind Regards Pam
