Carbone Family in apice, italy

Post by ralphresta »

Grandfather's birth certificate indicates his name as Giuseppe Antonio Carbone and birthdate as May 21, 1895 and his parents names as Crescenzo and Carolina. From the Ellis Island Passenger Records, notation of Guiseppe Carbone arrived in NY from Naples on May 3, 1912. Last place of residence was noted as Apice. His sister -Maria and his brothers - Berardino and Crescenzo (Benny and Charlie). Their birth certicates have their names as Berardino (Benny) and Crescenzo (Charlie).
The following info was given to me by my moms cousin:
My Great Grandmother Carolina's father was a well known, famous portrait painter in his home town. Growing up, a relative lived only a few blocks away from her and saw her every day and Grandmother Carolina would tell stories about her life in Italy and mentioned that her Father was a famous portrait painter in Apice.
Hoping to find family there.
Make It A Great Day,

Write to the Mayor. If your Grandfather was famous the town will likely have an interest in his descendants.
