Ischia di Castro
We are researching my great grandfathers immigration in 1907 and plan to visit the area he came from Ishcia di Castro. I understand it is @ 40 miles north of Rome. <BR>Is anyone familier with this city or lodging close by. It took me forever to find it on a map. <BR> <BR>Thanks

Hello Belfiore, <BR> <BR>Well that explains everything! I wondered why you posted the question a second time ... <BR> <BR>Ischia di Castro is west of Lake Bolsena, north of Viterbo, and probably about 2 hours drive from Rome. Here are the websites I posted before. How's your Italian? <BR> <BR>www.isa.it/tuscia/cartacom.htm <BR>www.isa.it/tuscia/ischiacastro/index.htm <BR>................./comuni.htm (for nearby villages) <BR>www.isa.it/tuscia/english/enghome.htm <BR>http://www.emmeti.it/Arte/Lazio/Prov.../index.uk.html <BR>www.provincia.vt.it/cultura/turismo.htm (general info on province of Viterbo) <BR> <BR>Nearby Lake Bolsena is one of the largest volcanic crater lakes in Europe. This area is very attractive. <BR> <BR>Some websites:- <BR>www.bolsena.net <BR>www.pelagus.it/bolsena <BR>www.pelagus.it/lago/bolsena <BR>www.lagobolsena.com <BR> <BR>Hope this helps. Please don't lose them this time! Let me know if I can be of more help ... <BR> <BR>Steve <BR>
