Dear no name if you wish to locate a record for your grandmother entering the USA as an immigrant go to www.ellisisand.org and that will give you her age upon arrival and from that you can figure out her year of birth . You can also look at the ships manifest (upper left click)and then from there you can go to www.paginebianche.it and put in her last name in the first line and the town of origin in the third line and click \"cerca\' which should give you a list of any same surnamed persons in that town if there are any currently residing there. If you are seeking documents then get back to me. Peter
