Hi, I don't have neither Scottish, nor Italian ancestry, so I cannot answer your questionnaire, but there is a beautiful town in the Province of Lucca called Barga which has very strong links with Scottland as many local people migrated there.
Good luck with your work!

Thanks for the tips guys, my father is actually from Barga and I was there in July to do some research!
They call it , 'the most Scottish town in Italy'!
You would probably get a lot more response from genealogy sites that deal with immigration from Italy to England and Scotland. You will find quite a lot of people on those who fit your bill perfectly!
