Hi, Jc

Here is a death record for Frank Pulice

It was taken from this amazing site for WV records:

I'm sure you can find many more records on it! Good luck!

[Squigy]

Oh, sorry, that can't possibly be your Francesco. He was a child at the time of death in 1925 ( I misread your post)


Here is the record you want:

As I said, this site is amazing, and I'm sure you will find some more ancestors on it.

JC - You will have to create a username and login (its free) before you can actually see any of the records at the site Laura linked to .

Just thought I would mention this as it is not obvious when reviewing the web site.

Wow. Replies very quick. Thank you. =]

Squigy: I am already very well acquainted with that site. I have found a lot of records for many ancestors. I love it! But I could not find anything about Francesco there...

Laura and johnny: I am awaiting my confirmation email for that site. Haha.

Thank you all for the quick help. Hopefully there's more options though...

My (very vague) recollection is that you don't have to wait for the email; your chosen username and password will work right off the bat.

I may be wrong; it has been a long time...

[jc4490]

I thought of that and tried... didn't work. I'm going to re-register and try again. Haha.

Edit: Still didn't work. I guess I have to wait for some Italian lady or gentleman to activate my account... Boo. =[

Jc if you register using gmail you won't have a problem, it seems for some reason to give people with other email account a hard time registering.

[jc4490]

I am using gmail. Haha. This is just my bad luck. I'll try with a different email, I have a yahoo, who knows that might work for me. I have a habit of making technology do strange things... =/

I love that site too! For WV records, it beats Ancestry.com by far, wouldn't you agree? By the way, in my second post I put in a link to Francesco's death record, do you already have this?

[jc4490]

suanj, thank you so much for all that wonderful information. I can't believe how nice and helpful everyone on this site is. Thank you so much everyone!

Squigy, I totally agree. Anything that's free is automatically better, at least in my opinion! Haha. And no, I did not have that record. Thank you. =]

I am researching my family history and Francesco Pulice is my great great grandfather. His son Saverio is my great grandfather. I see you posted this almost a year ago so I am hoping you are still using this site and that we can exchange information. I have info on the families of Saverio and Pasquale. I would love to know if you found more information than what was listed above and how you are related. Hope to hear from you!!
