Family Help-Briasco, Guala, Cazzetta, Salafia

Post by JoeBriasco »

I know paternal greatgrandfather Briasco, greatgrandmother Guala,I know my grandmother used to say she was Piedmontes, great grandfather Briasco I heard fled from Mussilinni, some went to Argentina-Maternal great grandfather was Cazzetta, great grandmother was a Mecelli- Melilli Sicily, grandmother was half sister to Salafia. Maternal Family from Sicily and Paternal Family from Piedmonte region.

It's so confusing. One or the other spouse died early and then they married into another family. :?

Hi there,

There is microfilm for the town of Melilli that you can rent from your local Family History Center for about $3.50 a roll. The link is below.

You can find birth, marriage, and death records of your ancestors on the microfilm.

I hope this helps.
