Re: Italian Harlem Historians??

A lot of the buildings in Harlem, where our ancestors lived, were torn down for public housing. Your best bet is to contact the map division at the NY Public library, that will show you the streets that once were, but are now gone.

Re: felice esposito

Pomigliano d'Arco records are free on Family Search, I too have family with the surname Esposito from the same town.

Re: Family Members on Italian Death Records

Always look to see who announced the death record, in doing this I found a line of my family that went to Catania. But, yes, I agree the people who sign at the bottom are usually people that worked at the records office. The best thing to do is when entering the information of the death record onto ...

Re: Nocera Inferiore- no records at the FHC

I am looking for a marriage record in the 1920's and a birth record from 1904. Will the state archives have them?

Re: Nocera Inferiore- no records at the FHC

I have the same problem with towns in Naples records are only up until 1865 in the towns I need. Someone I know was going to Salt Lake City and our director at the FHC called to inquire about some towns in Spain and Salt lake City had them, they were not even on the website, they could only be viewe...

Re: Calvary Cemetary in New York

I will look at my map. I am busy this morning, if I don't get back to you, please remind me later. If it is the same, which I am sure it is, my cousin has pictures from last fall, I can send you.

Nocera Inferiore- no records at the FHC

Hello, anyone know why there are no records for this town? I was told they may have been destroyed during WWII. Does anyone know an email address or the Church to get records from this town?

Re: Calvary Cemetary in New York

My grandparents are buried in Calvary, as well as other relatives. Also, my cousins great-uncle is in the potters field. When you call Calvary, they might do one free look up, but when you call give the list of every name you are looking for, because they could be in the same plot, easier for the pe...

Re: Roots in the Boot

No, but I won't let anyone else do my research either. Have you done any research yourself at the Family History Center? Do you know the towns your ancestors came from?

Re: Requesting copies of recotds

You can call Salt Lake City and ask them to print a better copy for you. I do it all the time, my family history center has horrible readers. As for responses to your letters, remember in Italy many towns do not have work hours like the USA. In one town I was in, the office was closed Wed and Friday...
