new to all of this!

Hi there. I'm just starting out with this project. I have no idea where to begin. I've decided to trace my given name. I can go back to the birth of my great-grandfather in 1865 in Sciacca, and I do have his parents' names. Unfortunately, the last person who may have had more info just passed away.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Thanks, Linda

Here is a link that will take you to the LDS microfilm page where you can search for films of certain dates etc.

Hello Linda!

Are you looking to go further back than 1865? Or are you looking for more recent information, since you speak of a deceased relative who may have had more information?

Linda,

Do you have a subscription to Ancestry.com? If so, you can access many of the Italian records through their website. You have your great great grandparents names, so it may help find your great grandpa's siblings.
