The grandfather of my great-grandmother was medical doctor in Herceg Novi (Castelnuovo) at the beginning of the 19th century. I am writing you because the Herceg Novi City Archive has no e-mail address. (only a phone number, +382 31 322 65, where nobody answers!!)
His name was Dr. Christoph (or Cristoforo) Hesse. He was leading the local hospital, at least between 1819 and 1838, as far as I know.
He was married with a lady called Lucrezia Reggio. And they had at least a son, born in Herceg Novi in 1819, with the name Carlo (Karl) Hesse (my direct ancestor), which became later Captain at the reputed Lloyd Austriaco shipping company from Trieste.
I wonder if I can find in the City Archives of Herceg Novi information about this medical doctor ancestors, life and activity and about his family.
Can you help me ?
Thank you!
