Hello. I could use a little more help if there is anyone willing to assist me. You've all been wonderful with help in the past and I really appreciate all the information you've given me. I'm searching for information on my Grandfather, Luigi Venanzio Rainaldi, DOB 3 May 1882. He immigrated to the U...

Oh no. I had the wrong record. Here is Dominic's and, unfortunately, there are no added notes. Oh my. I'll have to start again and see if I can find her birth record. Sorry for the confusion. -Leslie

Laura, Thank you so much. I had all of the census data from Pgh from 1910 on, but didn't have the one from Mahoning County.

Records I just received from the Diocese of Pittsburgh gave me answers and created confusion. Hoping someone can help My paternal grandmother (Martha Buccigrossi, DOB abt 1889, believed to be born in Pescocostanza, believed immigrated to US in 1890) was married in PA in 1908. Church records of Marth...

Thanks. I've finally found his parent's names through the Diocese of Pittsburgh.

hi there I am looking for my great grandfather´s birth location in Italy. His name was Gaetano Scalese (born between 1873 and 1875), and his parents´ names were Salvatore Scalese and Filomena Cuccurullo. He moved to Argentina. This is the only info I have. Is there any way to find any info, or an...

You say you have US records "through his death". Would that include his Social Security Death Index? Using his SS # you can request his Social Security Application (I think it is SS-5). That will have his parents' names. http://www.iabsi.com/gen/public/ins_foia_petitions.htm#SSA T. Thanks...
