Yes I'm related to Melandri family! I'm not sure that Vincenzo born in 1814 and exiled in London is one of my ancestry, but surely there are a lot of coincidences. I will find in archives to make no mistakes.
Ciao to Italy!

Hi libbs, Vincenzo was send with a lot of other italian people in exile for politic opinions. If he wanted to return there was the prison. The State of the Church collapsed in 1859. When Vincenzo was send in New York in 1854 he was widower and had a son that remain in Italy ( I am not sure of the name of the son). Probably in London he formed an other family.
Why are you finding informations about him?
Do you have some information about his period in London?
I know that he died in Italy
Thank you!

Hi Libbs! I am italian. Sorry for my english. There are a lot of people with the same name, so is possible to make errors. I have done a research about Vincenzo Melandri born in Faenza (near Ravenna) 27/07/1814. His father was called Giuseppe (not Guiseppe) and was a shoemaker. Vincenzo fight in the first indipendence italian war in Vicenza in 1848 in a civic battalion. In 1849 in Italy there was a revolution in particolary in papal state. When the Pope returned there were a terribile restauration  with a lot of exiliated. Vincenzo , called Barilone (big barrel) was an innkeeper, with 25 of Faenza was send in New York in 1854. He tried to retourn in Italy passing by Marseille, but he had to go to London where he met Giuseppe Mazzini and other italian patriots.
