Hi massi69uk and welcome to the forum.

Can you give any more detail on where he was born? We need to try and narrow it down if we can.

Did Pietro go from Italy to UK? About what year did he travel. Wife (full name) and childrens names and approximate years of birth. Pietro's siblings and approximate years of birth. Did any of them travel to UK, USA etc.

The more details you can give, the easier it will be for people on the forum to help you.

Regards,
Elizabeth

Chiassone is famous on two fronts in the time periood you are referencing...One branch jpined Garibal;di in his Southern Italy campaign and the other Edoardo Chiossone had a museum built in his honor in Genova for being the offical engraver for the Emporer of Japan and the Japanese government. There is no record for Pietro on either side and there is not even a record of his arrival in NYC. So when answering please furnish as much information as you can. =Peter=

I'd appreciate some direction on how find the history of my family. How the name originated? (I have 3 versions...)
I was born in Genova in 1969, my father Mauro born in Genova 1952. I dont't know much else about us.
Do you know which ancestor emigrated to Uruguay?

Many thanks

One bit of unconfirmed I have is that a Eugenio Chiossone emigrated to Uruguay in 1870. How can I find out if he is a relation?

Thanks

Dear Massimiliano send an e-mail to Eyarza@movinet.com.uy, preferably in Spanish and very simple english (short simple sentences). Please let me know how you make out so that we can go to the next step and contact the good doctor Chiassone in montevideo who may be related to your Eugenio Chiassone. =Peter=

Dear Massimiliano Ok we are making progress. Go to www.familysearch.org and under ancestor search just put in Chiossone and you will find a Pedigree resource file for Bernardo Chiossone(1860's) and the birth of his son Antonio in Lavalleja province or department in Uruguay. You can either buy or go to your nearest Mormon family history library (check same site for location) for the family pedigree CD. Since Bernardo is his first name and not Pietro it may require further research to fuklly dtermine if bernardo and Pietro are one and the same person. =Peter=

Really sorry, I just noticed that I mentioned Uruguay in my posts, but the country I meant was Venezuela.
So Eugenio Chiossone emigrated to Venezuela in 1970...
Apologies :roll:

Here is a link for LDS that lists Chiossone files that people have posted.
http://www.familysearch.org/eng/Search/ ... search.asp

Do you know if the origin is city of Genova in the province of Genova or just province of Genova?

If it's Genova, Genova I can post the link for civil records.

Dear Massimiliano,

I may have the information you are trying to find. My Wife is from Venezuela. Her Great-Grandfather was Eugenio Giuseppe Chiossone. He was born October 7, 1848 in Arenzano, Genoa, Italy. He was Baptized in Parrocchia Dei SS. Nazario E Celso on September 15, 1848.

His Father was Giuseppe Chiossone and his mother was Luiggia Chiappara.

Eugenio emmigrated from Italy around 1870 to Cucuta, Columbia. Cucuta is on the Columbian Venezuela Border Near San Christobal Vanezuela. He maried Rosalia Estrada in Cucuta, Columbia. In 1875 an Earthquake Complete destroyed Cucuta. Eugenio moved his family a few miles accross the Venezuelan border to a town called Rubio, Venezuela.

This sounds like the Chiossone Family that you are looking for.

Please let me know, if this is true you have lots of "Cousins" in Venezuela!

Peter,

No, I live in the US. My Venezuela Brother-in-law recently sent me additional information and documents on my wife's Great-Grandfather. I was Googling his name to see what additional information I could find. That's how I happend on this thread on Italian Genealogy Form.

I lived in Venezuela. I met and married my wife in Venezuela. Her maiden name was Rodriguz Chiossone.

I met many of her Chiossone Cousins while I was living in Venezuela in the early 1980s
