Are you looking for an Italian surname? Do you need more information about your family heritage?
This is the right place to start your genealogy search.
Anyone with information on the above surnames, I would be interested in talking to. In particular I'm looking for the family of Grazia (Cairo) Preite born about 1888 in Castiglione Cozentina. Also from that area her uncle Pietro Cairo born around 1855 or any other family members.
If you go to www,.paginebianche.it and put inthe Preite and Cairo surnames inthe firlst line (one at a time please) and then castiglione Cozentina and click CERCA for 22 Preite and 7 cairo surnames listed by full name,address and telephonenumbers.

Welcome to IG....have you completed all US research? Do you need help in accessing Italian records? Or are you primarily interested in connecting with family?

I am looking for the relations of Francesco Liuzzi (1877) from Montemurro Potenza and Antonia Montano Corleto Petricana (1877) who came to NY- ALBANY 1903 - BOTH came form a very large family and many people have ignored the cousins and or siblings of their g- grandparents... I assume that most people from this small area with the same last name could be ralted... they had family that went to S America... These are the relations of my children- thank you
Didn't you try to use the directory for Cairo and Preite at www.paginebianche.it as I outlined to you above? Once you see the people perhaps you may wish to write to them in Italy and ask about relatives in North and South America. =Peter=

Thank you for your help, I have found a few american connections, but the ones I'm after died in Castiglione Cosentino. I'm afraid a language barrier might keep us from connecting, but i'm going to try!!!

Hi nanette433 my name is Almendra Cairo and my grand grand father was Pietro Cairo.. he come to argentina at the ends of 1800.
He was born in Castelnuovo scrivia, Alesandria.
Thanks for th ereply Almendra, but I don't think we are talking about the same Pietro. My Pietro Cairo was born in Castiglione Cosentina and I have reason to believe came over the the states - Pennsylvania in the early 1800's with his son Luigi.

Perhaps you are still using the forum. My great grandfather was francesco Liuzzi from montemurro aznd his father was Domenico liuzzi (who arrive to argentina arround 1900). I think that perhaps your francesco from albany and Domenico were brothers

I am new to this site so I don't know if I am posting this correctly. I am noticing that several members in the Liuzzi thread mentioned that their family went to Argentina. I am trying to find out anything about my grandfather's family? He was Louis William Liuzzi, which would have been Luigi Gierllmo Liuzzi. He came to the US with his parents and siblings from Naples in 1901. They were supposed to come into NY (Ellis Island) but there was a bad storm and they were diverted to Boston. They were on their way to South America, but decided to stay in the US and they settled in upstate NY in a little town called Gloversville. They became glove makers. Some of my grandfather's siblings were: Julia (Giulia) Nancy (Nunziad), John, Salvadore, Earl, and Mary. Some of these names were Americanized and I don't know the translations. Earl may have been Horazio. I would like to find out if my Liuzzi family was from Naples, or if they just sailed out of Naples to the US. My grandfather never talked about his relatives they left in Italy, except that there was an uncle who was in the Italian military. I would also like to know if they had relatives in South America and is that the reason they were originally going there. Any information is appreciated. --Karen
One of the most fun things that I discovered in my research was finding my look alike ancestor, Prince Marino Caracciolo II. Don Marino descends from the Caracciolo Rossi family, one of the oldest families in Naples, that date back to 950 AD. He was born in Atripalda on 9-6-1587 and died in Naples o...
