La famiglia di Forami

[jwiilliams]

Ciao e buon natale!

Does anyone know any Forami from Messina, Sicilia? My bisnonno was born there in 1888 in Roccalumera. I am trying to find relatives in Italia, but I have had no luck. I know that Francesco, my bisnonno's father was named Letterio Forami and I do not know where he was born.

Grazie, Giacomo
