Just starting out

[Crash]

Hello everyone,

I apologize in advance if this is located in the wrong place. I'm just starting out working my way up my family tree. I BELIEVE that I've made to my great grandfather. It's kind of hard to get information as my grandmother who knew a lot passed away before I started this project, and no one else really remembers or knows. I've hit a roadblock, I think my great grandfather's name was Peter Cardone born in Naples, Napoli, Campania, Italy June 1st 1893. My grandfather Ernest was the only child I could find who was married to my grandmother Mary. Not looking for free handouts just some help or a point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Thank for all the help and information. So if I'm reading this all correctly. Then Pietratomo Cardone from Pietrelcina Italy is my great grandfather Peter? As for the wife/wives? Is Amelia Mary? Or did he marry twice? Lol sorry it's all a bit confusing. But thanks again for all the help

[suanj]

Hi, I believe that Amelia and Mary was the same person, just she changed her first name in Mary...
