So far closest matches are to 4th cousins with family tree surnames and locations that connect to his baptismal Godfather- close to 60 years ago. His presumed biological father now long deceased.

My husband’s father’s family was from Teggiano-Salerno. He never knew any family or relatives from his father’s side. His mother w...

Good news! Grave found! The evening before last we searched for the funeral home listed on the death certificate. They are now non-existant. Yesterday after spending close to 40 minutes on the phone with the cemetery, the manager called us back late afternoon to inform of grave location. Seems when ...
