Surname: Di Monda

Post by adimonda »

Ciao tutti, I'm interested in learning a bit more about my Italian family. The last name is Di Monda (two words) and they're from Castell Cisterna outside of Naples. My great-great-great grandfather's name was Donato Di Monda and his son was Leopoldo Di Monda. I think the name means "of the world" but I'm not positive and I don't know what the implications are for that name. Were they sailors? Or involved in trade?

I'd also love any information you guys have about Castell Cisterna. Wikipedia and the internet don't have a ton of information on the town or castle. Grazie!

I see Leopoldo Di Monda was born in 1888 in Castello di Cisterna since there are no records past 1865 at FHL I would send for his birth record to verify the parents ages to request their marriage record then you can go to the FHL film records for more records. Try email first if no response in 30 days go with regular mail. The person from the commune is Clementina is a Di Monda might be a relative
