Scorzelli Lineage

[nisc1005]

I am trying to find information on my great great grandfather Giacindi Scorzelli. I know his son, my great grandfather Julius Ceasar Scorzelli, is the one who came to america in 1909, or thereabouts. But his father and beyond is a mystery to me. If anyone has any information, I'd be most greatful.

Since suanj has identified the last place of residence (and possibly the place of birth) as Roccadaspide, Province of Salerno, Campania Region... you may wish to write directly to the comune to request a birth record for Giacinto Scorzelli

Address:
Ufficio dello Stato Civile
Via Giuliani
