Ken and other interested parties,
you may want to check the cartographic bureau of the Regione Abruzzo at
http://www.regione.abruzzo.it/cartografia/home.htm
otherwise, the main source for italian maps resided with Istituto
Geografico Militare (a sort of NIMA)
http://www.nettuno.it/fiera/igmi/igmit.htm
Regrettably, all such info is... in Italian!
As per the localities you search: yes, they all sit around the Barrea
Lake (a splendid location, I was born nearby)..
Hope this could provide some hints..
Good luck,
Umberto
