Re: Pugno & Texel Family from Torino

Yes Thank you I did have those documents- I have made the most of my free 14 day trial of Ancestry ;-) I seem to have a lot of info for Nicolo and Angelina, but nothing on their parents. I did write to try and get a birth record for Angelina. My uncle is hoping that we will also be able to find what...

Re: Pugno & Texel Family from Torino

SO now which one is the truth? The wedding certificate or the ship manifest? I tend to lean towards the wedding as they were not in such a rush for the questioning and because at that time an immigrant had to have a relative or sponsor to come to this country, yes? I did search for Orso on a ship ma...

Re: Pugno & Texel Family from Torino

I have this record- and I saw the Celestina listed as her mother. On an origianl copy I have of Nicolo's birth certificate the mother's name is listed as Caterina. Could this be a discrepency due to the spellin gof the ship's officer ( I often find the last name of Texel spelled as Tecsel or Tescel)...

I was actually looking for the info for Angelina's parents- Ambrogio Pugno and Melani Estren ( Estras) or the info for parents of Nicolo Texel ( I know he was born in Torino) Orso Texel and Caterina Isoardi(Isoardo).

Re: Pugno & Texel Family from Torino

Laura

I think Sordevolo may be correct- I know that Angelina's daughter Adele ( my grandmother) was very proud of her Piedmontase heritage.

Thank you!!

Re: Pugno & Texel Family from Torino

I was hoping to find either marriage certificates for either couple
or death certificates for any of my ancestors listed except Melani ( she came to NY in 1922) All of the information I have point to all but Melani having been born in Torino

Sorry- I am still so new to all of this-

Re: Translating a birt certificate

I might be wrong but as far as I know a surname like Tsoardo doesn't exist. So this could be a typo. I know that in Piedmont there is Isoardo and Isoardi. Ada Thank you! I had wondered about the spelling myself. My mother in law copied the text off the original. She was shocked to find such an old ...
