If you go to www.ellsiisland.,org you can find a record of his arrival in the USA and since you know the town of origin and his immediate family I can onlly guess that you would like to trace his family back as far as pissilbe. Civil records such as birth,marriage and death records can be obtained either thru the microfilms for Casalduni, Provincia benevento thru the Family History Library of the Mormon church near your home or you can write to casalduni's Ufficio di Stato Civile for documents providing you have full names an dates or years of birth. Should you have some idea of what you want to know it makes it easy to assist you but you only seem to restrict your inquiry to "Milke" (Michele) Vetrone and the immediate family. Peter

Thanks for the reply. I have all the info I can get from Ellis Island. I've even visited there! I am trying to find possible relatives in Italy. I'm not necessarily restricitng to immediate family - I just thought that was a start. I do also know there was a half brother (Pellegrino William Vetrone). I haven't tried the Mormon church yet. That was next. I do know that his passport says Michele. There was also a woman who apparently followed him to US, married,divorced & returned to Italy after 8 years. Her name was Maria Gracia Piccirillo. I always seem to come to a dead end. Thanks again.

I am nowhere close to researching my family in Italy...but...came across this post and wanted to get in on it...hope you don't mind! I recently found a "clue" that my family came from Benevento, Italy.
Surname: Vetrone (Michael) wife Mary Beltrano (sp?) immigrated in the
1890 s. Haven't even started this part of my research...so I might be jumping ahead of myself...

If you go to the family history library of the Mormon church nearest your home you can rent the miocrofilm for the years 1809 to 1860 all all birth,marriage and death recorfds in Casalduni. Since you know his parents names in Casaduni then all yhou have to do is rent the mirofilm of these births,marriagews and deaths and trace your family back to 1809. This will preclude you from having to do any more research until youi are ready for anythingbeyond 1809. Peter

Thank you for the info. I really appreciate the help.

Are there other ports other then Ellis? I know that the family settled in Maryland...

Michael and Mary did not travel together. She came later with a baby girl Mamie or Minnie.

Also, Nicholas Giangolo immigrated 1889. Both Michael and Nicholas listed occupation as stone cutters/mason.
