DeMarco from LaCavarta, Cosenza, Calabria

Post by TulaTula »

I am searching for family members in Cosenza of Francesca DeMarco, born 4 March 1888 and married 1906 to Francesco Sturino. She emigrated to the U.S. in 1919 but had brothers and sisters in LaCavarta. Her father was Salvatore and she had a brother, Michael and 2 other brothers and 3 sister in Italy. Could some one point me the way to find these family members. Thank you.

Yes, the her husband was born in Rende but I was reading though her obit again and it stated she was born in LaCavarta and her surviving brother lived there. This obit was from 1977. I though maybe I was wrong in thinking the DeMarcos were from Rende. Is there still an archives that will send family group from Rende. I am interested in her brothers and sisters. In particular a Concetta DeMarco born about 1892.

I think she was born in Arcavacata a suburb of Rende so the records are held in the town of Rende
The online records of Rende are limited so I would rent the Family History Library microfilms of Rende that can be viewed and copied at a FHL center near you
Registri dello stato civile di Rende (Cosenza), 1809-1910 Births, marriages, banns, marriage documents, deaths including indexes I would start with the
Nati (births) 1876-1900 film#1640537

Thank you, Tessa78.
Family History Center doesn't seem to have a film of births after 1910 available. would the Ufficio dello Stato Civile have those?

They should have births after 1910...
However, you may find restrictions due to privacy laws that prevent obtaining more recent records (such as 1930s and onward)

Be sure to send a photo ID along with your request :-)
