Vercellino/ Torino, Italy
I am looking for the surname of Vercellino. Pietro Vercellino was my gr gr grandfather. He left Italy in 1876 the best I can figure. He was born around 1847 and married Johanah Cerreto. He died in 1916 in Negaunee, Michigan. They had 9 children.
Any information would be great.
Thanks

And yes I have seen him on 2 different census records, I also have his obituary, just trying to find out who his parents were. That or siblings.mfjp wrote:Hi MVercellineMcLauglhin all the way from Alaska!!

Re: Vercellino/ Torino, Italy
Hi: most probable that Pietro Vercellino married in Italy with GIOANNA CERETTO (exact spelling: no Giovanna but Gioanna; this is short shape of Giovanna); my personal opinion is that was from Torino province:mvercellinemclaughlin wrote:I am looking for the surname of Vercellino.

Joseph, b. July 4, 1886, Michigan
Elizabeth, b. Feb 18, 1888, Michigan

Re: Vercellino/ Torino, Italy
Here is the census that Trish found for you.
It's nice to see that a couple of the children were born in Italy... more chances of locating a ships record.

Castle Garden ship records might include the town from Italy, but won't give you any info as to who their parents were...

Re: Vercellino/ Torino, Italy
This helps an emmense amount, only child not listed on here is Frank, and I believe he was born in Italy as well, as he is older than James ( my great grandfather)brujaojos wrote:Hi There,mvercellinemclaughlin wrote:I am looking for the surname of Vercellino.

Would you happen to have a website for Castle Garden? I tried to search em, but all I found was written documents, not search capabilitiesmfjp wrote:Here is the census that Trish found for you.

Re: Vercellino/ Torino, Italy
If you have a paid subscription to Ancestry.com (immigration feature) you could access the the Castle Gardens ship records. I think you can do a search without a paid subscription, but all you will get is names and limited info...
You could go to a local Family History Center
http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Library ... et_fhc.asp
Phone first and see if they have computers and the internet... if so, you can research from Ancestry.com from there... and you will be able to view the Castle Gardens boat records...
But as mentioned, I will certainly look for a record... and will post here if something of interest is found.

I hit the jackpot and managed to find Pietro's parents. However, I believe that his mother was french. Her surname was Cherette. The problem is now that I have no idea where she was from, if indeed she is french. I think I am going to have to find a marriage certificate for Frank and Elizabeth (parents). Any suggestions as to how I could find this?
