I love old photographs no matter where they are from, and these are very interesting.

Perhaps you'd also like to post the link on the websites board.

Thanks

Thanks so much for the link to the site of photos. I share the same g g grandparents (married there in 1854) as Antonio, and it was hard to imagine what the old church looked like whilst staring at the current church. Brilliant!
Many thanks!
