If you cancme up with his town of origin or at least the province you can start with minimum difficulty but without the town of origin it will be difficult. All records for OZ arrival start after 1865 and since he came earlier OZ records are most likely non existant. The very last thing we can do is write one generic letter and send it to all Marcantelli in Italy. It is feasible since there are not that many and it will be a last resort. Peter
