One Name, One Place Study - #1

Ok, I'm about to start something I've never done before. Many times, my genealogy research could be enhanced by a comprehensive research log. I do a pretty good job of keeping organized source citations, but never a big and robust log of what I have and haven't done. Well, that is about to change; I'm going to make it a mission to go through each year from 1809 thru 1945. I'm going to essentially do a One Name, One Place Study. The names: Scorca and de Pinto with the place being: Grumo Appula, Bari, Puglia, Italy.



The reason for this place? Well, the records are freely available on the following two site: Antenati and FamilySearch. Most of the years have civil birth, marriage and death records with an index in the back of the book, which will make it easier to search for the two names listed above and then I will keep track of my progress. I will make a note of the records number, the person, date, name of parents, and a link to the actual records. By doing this, I will then have a complete research log of the town of Grumo Appula. I'm not doing every person, just the people with the surnames of Scorca and de Pinto.

  1. Is there a place where I can read your findings into the surname Scorca?

  2. Hi, I'm so sorry that it's taking me this long to get back to you. I'm kind of new with the platform and I didn't realize I had a comment wedding. I apologize. I think I've got things figured out but back to your original question, no, I don't have a particular place you can read about any particular research I've done with the SCORCA name. But if you do have anything specific regarding Scorca surname, drop me an email message and maybe we can chat about it.
