Hi all!
I'm in the process of gathering all the documents required for Italian citizenship and what not. I'm only missing one- My great grandfather's birth certificate.
His name was Francesco Luigi Nicol Ferrua. Sometimes shortened to Frank Luigin Ferrua. It varies depending on the document really.
He was born May 24th, 1894 I believe in Liguria, possibly somewhere around Orco Feglino which is where he listed his mother as living when he arrived in America at 17 years old.
I believe his parents names were Ambrogio Ferrua and Maria (Maiden name Passtorino).
I'm just looking for some thing that is a for sure birthplace before I have to send some amount of money out to try and get a copy of the certificate...
Really any help at all is immensely appreciated!!!

Thank you so much! You brought tears to my mothers eyes when I told her you had found his birth town. We were feeling so discouraged! Thank you so so so much. I literally cannot express my gratitude enough.
