The surname should be Casamassima. I assume you typed the extra s incorrectly. Go to www.paginebianche.it and you will find there are 57 listings for Casamassima in Castellaneta and there are NO Cassamassima whatsoever.. There are 18 listings for Paradiso. Put in the surname in the first line and Castellaneta in the third line and click CERCA for the listings and look over the full names and addresses and telephpone numbers for your relatives. Peter

Hi,
I have Paradiso and Casamassima ancestors linked to my Dentico family. They seemed to come from a town called Gioia del Colle. Can we get in touch?
