Hello Stephen, so pleased to hear from you. It’s a pity though that we can’t trace the family in Italy. I wanted to contact the film director, Peter Cattaneo, as I thought in his profession he’d have access to researchers, but couldn’t find a way to contact him. What is your line back to Anthony? Mine is their daughter, Mary Agnes who married William Bosomworth and then it’s my grandfather. Although I spent a lot of time with him, he never mentioned his family and I didn’t think to ask, so everything I’ve researched has been a surprise. I managed more information on Mary Rhymer, but only as far as 1755. I’m very disappointed as I’ve gone a long way back on most of my other lines. I was on the Stockton site yesterday and discovered something distressing. I don’t know which Cattaneo it was, but he lost all his family to TB so hanged himself outside his shop. I have a lovely story about Anthony which suggests he was the first one in England, but there seem to be so many of them, I wonder if others followed or are they all the children - I know they had a lot. If you’d like the story, contact me through FB. I’m Denise MacLachlan in SA, no profile picture, not the one in England who’s my sister-in-law. Best wishes.
