Looking for Casines or Cacines

Post by psydlis »

Trying to find my father's ancestors. My father was born in Cuba, however, was told our last name is of Italian descent, possibly Sicilian. Would appreciate any help.

My father - Arthur Casines b. 1933
Grandfather- Arturo Cacines - don't know DOB

Thanks in advance.

My father and grandfather lived in Havana Cuba. My father immigrated to Miami, FL USA in approx. 1959 and my grandfather later on about 1964 or 65. My father joined the Army when he came to the US.
