Thanks. I am trying to find documents showing births and deaths of anyone with those surnames. I know most of the relatives still living there, but they are not much help. They can only give me info back to great-grandparents. I will try the suggestions you gave me.

records in Sicily and southern Italu go back to the early 1800's(1803-1805). Prior to this you have to go to church records which should take you back to the 16th century as a result of the Cpuncil Of Trent when the church required registration of all parishoners. If you need church addresses please let me know. Peter

Josy... I am descended from Serafina Conigilaro, daughter of Giacomo Conigliaro and Crucificia Mannino. Serafina was the spouse of Giacomo Cracchiolo and would have been my great-great grandmother. Unfortunately, that's about all I have. Do any of these individuals appear in your family tree? Please contact me at cortevi5@msu.edu .

I have a really helpful site on Carini, with hundreds of online records here: http://www.jamesbianco.com/page5.html

There is also a Yahoo Carini Research group. Everything is available online to the year 1876.
