Zermani Family from Bardi

[Claireangelina]

Hi.
I'm trying to compile my family tree.
One of my ancestors was a man called Gulio Zermani (possibly also Guilio or Guilian)
He was born in Bardi in 1845. He died in Wales in 1919. He married a woman called Elizabeth in Cardiff in Jan 1878.
They moved to Pembrokeshire and had 12 children. Did he write home about his new life?
I know there was a big emigration out of Bardi around that time.
Is the Zermani name fairly common? Would I have distant Italian cousins from those who didn't move to Wales?
Would anyone know Elizabeth's maiden name?
Ancestor.com has done as much as it can.
Please help if you can.
Thanks
Claire (Guilio's Great-great-granddaughter )

Zermani seems to be a surname typically from Emilia, as you can see from www.paginebianche.it (Italian white pages)
and www.cognomix.it (gives a map of surnames)

But nowadays there seem to be no more Zermani's in Bardi.
there are also a lot of Church and civil records from Bardi available on microfilm at LDS Genealogy Centers (Mormons).

Thanks.
I have got to learn some Italian!
At least I know where my family comes from even if there are no more Zermanis in Bardi itself.
I still need to find out where Elizabeth comes from.
Thanks again.

Hi, my grandmother's last name is Zermani. She was born in 1892 in Boston, Massachusetts. Her parents were from Vernasca, Italy.
