Faggella or Jerolino Information?

Post by mlc »

I'm trying to figure out in what town my great great grandfather (Marcantonio) and great great grandmother (Mariana) were born. I've been told it's somewhere in/near Naples...
The last name is Faggella (and one of their daughters married into a family called Jerolino). Does anyone have any information on family lines for Faggella and/or Jerolino?

Thank you!

Thank you both SO much!! Marty, where did you find the marriage record? Is this something I would be able to request from someone in San Fele? I actually did contact the regional office there, in Italian, a few months ago to inquire about the birth records for Marcantonio and Marianna but they told me they didn't have anything on file...

Re: Faggella Family from San Fele - looking for ship manifes

Post by mlc »

The San Fele archives office was able to provide me with the birth certificates and marriage certificates for my great great grandparents as well as their parents! Now, I'm trying to find the immigration records/ship manifest showing my great great grandparents immigration to New York. I believe they left Italy in 1884 or 1885 and their names were Marcantonio (dob June 17, 1853) and Marianna Faggella (dob June 3, 1855). Any suggestions? Thanks!

Does this list of names from Ellis Island records help?

Thanks Gina but they would have had to come over sometime between 1885 and 1888 because their son was born in 1888 in New York... I think they would have had to come through Castle Gardens but there doesn't seem to be a record.
