Searching Morabito - Curro

Post by telena »

I am trying to search information regarding my family. My grandfather Nicola Curro was born in Messina Italy and Teresina Morabito was from Calabria. He came to America in 1903. They had a daughter Roselina born in 1902. I know he lived in Gualtieri Sicamino Messina. He had 6 sisters I know one was Caterina and one was Roselina not sure of the others. Teresina's parents my ggrandmother's name was Domenica and she married Salvatore Morabito. Their children names Teresina, Mary, Helene, Gregory and Vincent all whom came to America in 1913. Would like to find out where to start to search about my relatives before they came to America. I know there are relatives living in Messina named Fransico Curro.

Thank you

Hi Telena,

the site Familysearch.org keeps online the civil registrations for Gualtieri Sicaminò town, this is a possible birth act for Nicola:

Birth act number 13 - Year 1876

Currò Nicola was born in Gualtieri Sicaminò on the day 18 march 1876, son of Filippo Currò son of the late Nicolò, age 36 and of his wife Domenica Ortolano daughter of the living Francesco, age 23

if you have a birth date or parents names you can compare it...

Thank you for the information. My family and I are continuing to search our grandparents as there is property that belongs to them in Gualtieri Sicamino, Messina, Italy. As I stated my grand father's name was Nicola Curro, he was married to Teresina Morabito. We are trying to find information on this property and we have an address, however, when looking the address up, it seems that the names of the streets were re-named. The address we have is Via Mancusi, Gialtieri Sicamino, Messina, Italy. Nicola Curro is the son of Filippo Curro and Domenica Ortolano. If there is any information available or sites and resources which could help us find this information we would gladly appreciate it.

Thank you. Would you know how I can continue my search to find out more regarding the property my family owns. It's been a few years since we have had any contact, since the death of our parents,aunts and uncle. We have paperwork, but all in Italian and really dont understand any of it. Thank you again.

I was doing research on my father Gregorio (Gregory) and saw your posting. I think I may be your cousin. The names you mention (Teresina, Helene, Mary and Vincent) were the names of my father's brothers and sisters. Philip Curro was my father's nephew. My name is Gregory Morabito. Please contact me.

‎Hi Telena,
By pure chance I came across your post on the internet and I believe I am one of the Italian relatives you are looking for. I have been living for many years in via Mancusi and my name is Domenico Currò. Please contact me and we might be able to figure out the relatives we have in common.
Best regards,
Domenico.‏
