I've been searching and searching for information and ties to my Italian heritage. My great-grandfather Salvatore Maino traveled to New York on a boat leaving from the port of Naples on February 28, 1912 via the SS Ancona. This was all the information I had until just a few days ago I found two "Atti di Nascita" records. Now, I only took two semesters of Italian as I sit and try to read and/translate the words. But I am having a difficult time even reading the Italian words! If anyone could help me, and let me know what these are/were used for... it would be so greatly appreciate to me and my family who are just trying to figure out where we came from.
Thank you so much for your time and efforts in advance!
My apologies too, I had to cut the picture just to my grandfathers name and paragraph because it was too big...
The other names that are on there it looks like are hard to read.. If anyone wants to view the document I can shrink it a bit and post! I just wanted to be able to have a clear view of my grandfathers paragraph
