Ruffatti Family from Torino Italy

[Dakern605]

I am looking to validate Dominic Ruffatti who came from Torino Italy and settled in Carbon Hill, Illinois a coal mining town in the US in the early 1900,s. I would like any information on the Ruffatti prior to 1900 that I can gather from Torino archives.

Thanks

if is the correct Domenico , you can read that the birth town is not Castellamonte, but a mispelled name town Framura Sarzana???? well if that is the right Domenico for any civil record need of deciphering the right birth town, and after we can help better....

To Clarify I am Looking for history of my family last name Ruffatti came from Turin, Italy my grand father was Bartholomew Ruffatti born (c) 1900 and his father was John Baptiste Ruffatti born (c) 1869-79. Settled around Carbon Hill, Illinois then moved to Detroit Michigan sometime after 1930.
