Re: Alice Prescini - C-47 - 41-18603 - DNB 2 Feb 1945

A check of my DPMO loss file shows that all 23 deceased were initially buried in FOLLONICA CEMETERY. Post-war, all but one are now buried in a National Cemetery (in the US or Florence, Italy), or in a private cemetery in the US. With one exception. Alice Pescini. She is noted as buried in Italy (as noted earlier), according to instructions from next of kin. This suggests to me that she was in fact an Italian citizen, which would explain why she cannot be found in the US census records. Anyone care to search the Italian census records, if they are online?

Enjoy!

Frank.
