Sorry it has taken so long to respond. I am trying to find ancestral history where he came from. I would like to be able to find out if he had brothers or sisters who came here to the US. None of my living relatives have any of that info. He died when I was very young and wasn\'t able to find out anything. That would at least be a start.

It is easier if you resubmit from the beginning since it would take a while to hunt down your previous submission. Peter

Are you certain he came from Garguano?????Ellis island records show Sant\'Agata Priglia, province of Foggia. Please clarify. In the meantime gp top www.paginebianche.com and insert the surnames you are interested in and the town of origin in the third line for possible rel;atives who have the same surname you are interested in. Can you specify what specific information you are seeeking>? Current relatives?, deceased relatives?, documents and what kind..birth.marriage,death or family composition certificates (certificato di Stato di Famiglia?? Please come up with research objectives so that I can direct you accordignly. Peter

Perhaps thisd will assist you in coming up with the correct town of rigin for Andrea Di Lorenzo. Sant\'Agata di Puglia is in the province of Foggia in the Puglia region while Guagnano is in the province of Lecce also in the puglia region and has a postal code of 73010. DFo you happen to know from what province your Andrea Di Lorenzo came from??> Peter

All that I know at this time is what is on the original manifest. It states both s.Agata Puglia and Garguno on the original....
<BR>What I would like to find out is if he had any siblings and family origins. At least that would be a start....I had always been told that his side of the family was from Naples.....
<BR>
<BR>Thanks

If you go to wwww.paginebianche.it and put in the surnames CVoppola and then DFi Lorenzo and in the third line put in Casola you will ghet a listing for two Casola in the Naples area. In one of the towns Coppola and Di Lorenzo surnames are both listed. I am assuming they were married in Italy since you don\'t say when or where they were married. Peter
