Some info you might try to collect:

Did Angelo immigrate from Italy?

If so where did he settle?

His approximate year of birth, immigration, and /or date of death.

Names of his wife and children?

Your father's approximate age, and place of birth.

This info can help us narrow down the search

I know you are looking for living individuals, but perhaps looking at records for past individuals will give you a clue as to where to locate these people

[maestra36]

There is an Angelo Bellomo who died in Hamilton, Ohio in 1984 and an Alice Bellomo who died there in 1996. Possibly someone can upload the images from ancestry.com for these two people, as they may be connected to your ancestry.

BELLOMO, ANGELO born 15 Jan 1902 died Aug 1984 at age 82 45204 (Cincinnati, Hamilton, OH) 45204 (Cincinnati, Hamilton, OH) Kentucky SS # 407-01-9473

from the social security index at www. rootsweb.com

If this is your ancestor, then you could send for a copy of his social security application which will give you his parents' names and his place of birth.

It does cost $27 to get this application.
