Re: Rugito and Martino from Ripacandida/Rionero, Potenza
I have since learned that Daniel and are 3rd cousins 1 time removed. :-) Michele MARTINO is our connection - Daniel's 2nd-gr (I think) and my 3rd gr-grandfather. Michele was married twice. My 3rd-gr grandmother was Anna Rosa MELE. She died a day after giving birth to their youngest son. Almost a yea...

Re: Help with two pages from Allegati
Grazie mille!!!
I have DNA relatives on 23andme, ancestryDNA, and FamilyTreeDNA - but we can not find common names. Maybe (just maybe) Maria Donata Cestelli could be a connection!

Re: Rugito and Martino from Ripacandida/Rionero, Potenza
Well, I have come a little further and discovered that Donato Rugito's father, Pantaleone Ruggito, was an abandoned child. This is listed for every one of his children's birth records and all statements in the Allegati for his marriage to Mariangiola (Arcangela) Martino. I don't know much more than ...

Help with two pages from Allegati
I do not speak Italian and have been struggling for almost a week with trying to translate handwriting into something that "Google Translate" can handle. So far, I have about a 60 to 75% success rate, and if nothing more, I am learning to "see" certain handwritten letters and pic...

Re: Rugito and Martino from Ripacandida/Rionero, Potenza
Just checked out Greg's work - very cool! He's well established with an impressive portfolio. I wish I was creative enough to think outside the box in an abstract way. I work almost exclusively in photo-realism and illustration styles. I can't quit the day job, but I do fairly well around Christmas....

Re: Rugito and Martino from Ripacandida/Rionero, Potenza
Lu never did get back to me, but she's recently moved to Australia, she's young and not that interested in family history (yet), and the people who would know these things are her parents, aunts, uncles, etc. It's ok, I found more clues and I think I see the connection now. On one of the archived ne...

Re: Rugito and Martino from Ripacandida/Rionero, Potenza
Since you'll only need one record with the correct town of orgin in Italy to begin your search through Italiain records, have you considered writing to both comunes (towns) for Donato Antonio Rugito's 1894 Birth Record? This is an excellent suggestion - thank you VERY much for all the links and res...

Rugito and Martino from Ripacandida/Rionero, Potenza
I have basically exhausted Ancestry.com for the Rugito surname. In fact, if you find a Rugito or Ruggito in the USA anywhere, they are my family (very few of us). I have reconnected with Rugito cousins in Ripacandida and Torino today, however they know about as much as I do about our great-grandpare...
