looking for family in italy

Post by negropam »

Our family came to the USA from Castagnole Delle Lanze in 1908.
The family surname is Negro
Great granfather Giovanni Negro and his wife Caroline came here with five sons. They also had three daughters that remained in that area of Italt. The great granparents returned for a time in 1913 and brought their son Michael and his wife back with them. My husband and I are going to this area in two weeks and thought some one might have information that would help us locate family in that area.
