Hello and welcome :-)

Have found 2 US passports issued to Ciro Scipione. They have a great deal of information for you...
1st one, issued in 1911, has Ciro's date of birth (in Formia)as Nov., 1, 1865, and wife Carmella Simone Scipione, born in St. Angelo, Italy, March 27, 1871. Also Albina born 1898 and Ida born 1896.

The second passport was issued in 1922.
It notes that the Certificate of Naturalization was seen, so that is something you can look for.
States that he immigrated in 1890 on SS California.
Ciro and Carmela were going over to Europe (Italy, France, Switzerland) for medical treatment.
Ciro's father's name was Vicanzo (sp?) and was deceased at that time.

BONUS! There are pictures of Ciro and Carmela on page 2 at the bottom.

Page 1 - RIGHT SIDE is the first page of the passport application

Page 2 - LEFT side is page 2...with photos on bottom of page.

Yes, unfortunately the civil records for Formia only cover 1809-1865 at LDS. Might be worth checking the 1865 film, though, since his DOB on US Passport was listed as Nov. 1, 1865.

You may wish to write to the comune to inquire about where/how to obtain a birth record.
Address:
Ufficio dello Stato Civile
Piazza Municipio, 1

From your other thread...
http://www.italiangenealogy.com/Forums/ ... 18336.html

Ann indicates that the comune(town) does have records after 1865... so use the above info to write to them :-)
