Maria Cabrelli BC Canada.
Your namesake Maria Cabrelli [my cousin] still owns and runs the chip shop in Elgin on the High Street called The Cadora.
Sadly Uncle Barto and Aunty Gilda are both morte and are buried in Monte nee guinadi near Pontremoli. Their daughters [Fiorella and Maria ] live in Elgin.
They had the chip shop from your side of the family until 1955-1956 when my mother and father took it over from them until 1960.
The Cabrellis then moved initially to Lossiemouth and then to Elgin. You should give her a call.
