Hello,
I am trying to find a little more information about my relatives. The majority of the Garippa's now live in New Jersey, USA.
My great-Grandfather Salvatore Garippa was Born in Contursi. His Father was Giovanni Garippa, and had a brother Rafaele Garippa and a Sister Concetta Garippa. Giovanna would have been born in Contursi around 1850. Is anyone here familiar with these names?
If it helps, Salvatore Garippa was a Christian missionary during the 1930s-1950s and started many evangelical churches around Italy. Some still exist today
Thanks so much!
John
