Iapalo, Loppole??? looking for birth records

Post by suzannestrickland »

Iapalo, province of catanzaro, calabria, Italy is listed on my great grandfathers passport application. Does anyone know where this town is? I'm looking for his birth records and his father's death certificate with no luck. Domenico LoBruno b:16 aug 1876 his father was Michele LoBruno .

I think it can be Joppolo, province of Vibo Valentia.
I found several ship manifests for Domenico Lobruno (I don't know if it's yours). Name of town is often misspelled, but it should be that.

He did go back and forth a few times. Do you know do I have to write for those records and what address or are they microfilmed? Thank you for taking the time to answer.
