Betta,
we're happy to help! vj

Does anyone have any information on Peitro Giacomo Poggi's Parents? the information I just received says his mother's maiden name was Naso, but that is all I have.

[vj]

Betta & all,
Question:
Looking for Peter POGGI's mother 'NASO' from Calif Death Index info
What town in Italy?
- Could the town on Peter POGGI's WWI Draft Card be 'Toirano'?
Possible relative in US?
- Giuseppe POGGI brother of Peter POGGI
(see Peter POGGI manifest 1905)
Was he a partner in the BACCINO & POGGI Restaurant
at 614 Broadway in 1922?

Bit stumped, not sure where else can look in US for clues to NASO...
Thanks! vj

Suggest getting "your g-grandfather's" SS application. Will list birth place and info on his parents.
