Looking for Criscuolo in Tufo

[oleynek]

Hi. I'm looking for information about my maternal great-grandmother. Her name on her immigration papers is Regina Criscuolo, born in 1844 +/- 1 year. Her last residence when she immigrated to the US was Tufo, Italy.

Any help would be soooooo greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Sue Geel

Hi sue,

When did she come here? Do you know what town she lived in? Did she come her with her parents or on her own? Do you know if she was married? With a little more information maybe I can help.

I did a quick search and this is what I came up with. If I had more info I could find more.

Thanks so much for your effort!!! But, she was born in Italy (Tufo, I think) in 1844 and came to America in 1910 on the Ducca DiGenoa.

Thanks again!!!

[oleynek]

Ooops... yes, she was married to Luigi Florio, who I don't believe ever came to America. It appears as if she came here after he died in Italy. I don't really know.

Thanks for everything!

Ooops again... I confused my great-grandmothers... she didn't come from Tufo, but from Furore. sorry.

hey Sue,

So did she live in the US after she came here? She didn't got back to Italy did she? What type of info are you hoping to find?


Regards,
Kristina

Kristina,

I know she had citizenship here by 1914, so I assume she stayed. I'm hoping to get any other information about her. Her parents' names and any information about her husband. That kind of stuff.

Thanks!
Sue

Hi Sue,

To obtain Regina's Italian records you can write to the following address.

Ufficio dello Stato Civile
Comune di Furore
84010 Furore (SA)
Italy


Correspondence should be in Italian, include a self addressed return envelope, a copy of your photo ID, & an international reply coupon (obtain from your post office-covers the cost of the return postage).

Here is a link to a form letter that will translate it into Italian.

Hope it helps.

Sue,

Do you know where they lived after coming to US??

My best guess would be the Bronx, NY. That's where their entire family settled.
