family research

[kscanza]

HI, I am new to this site and am looking for help/advice with my family tree. I know my great grandmother Mariantonia Casamassima was born on July 23, 1880 in Toritto, Bari Italy. Her parent's names were Nicola Casamassima and Grazia Biase. I do not know how to find records or search for more family information in this location?? Does anyone know how to help me??

Hi,
