The Cosenza Exchange:Montalto Uffugo - Catasto of 1748-1749

Catasto Onciario of Montalto 1748-1749

Thanks to Francesco Fullone, The Cosenza Exchange is proud to have the Catasto from Montalto which was completed between October 1748 and March 1749. These records will allow the descendants of Montalto to go back even further to research their ancestry. If your wish to view the Catasto in it's original form you may view it here.

Please note that the majority of people from the Vacarizzo frasioni of Montalto are not in this Catasto because a separate Catasto was done for this area. We also have the Vacarizzo Catasto which can be seen here.
