I just learned that My great grandfather Joe never came to America. Just his young son Frank. How can I find birth/ death records on him in italy?

oh well... these things happen...
We've collected all this info on someone's Great Grandfather Joe... maybe one day, the real descendant of this person may visit this post... and really appreciate our efforts eh??
And are we to assume that Frank's mother stayed in Italy too...??
Here's what is available in microfilm at a Latter Day Saints Family History Center
Lentini...

You are very fortunate... researching from this set of film should help you bigtime.. and should answer some of your questions...
Good luck with your research...
