I am having trouble finding my great grandfather’s birth town in Italy to be able to obtain a birth certificate. I believe it is in the Avellino/Napoli area. I have found the information below:
- Names used:
1) Luardo Tremonti
2) Eduardo Tremonti
3) Eduardo Tremonte
4) Lurado Tremonte
- Birthplaces listed:
1) O’Pondi, Avellino (listed on his USA WWII draft card)
2) Viliua, Italy (listed on his marriage license)
3) Serino, Italy (listed on USA immigration passenger manifest)
4) Surviving family thinks he was born in Napoli but they are not certain
He was born on December 21, 1889 to Urbano Tremonti and Antonia Vedrania (looks like a misspelling – can’t find this surname anywhere)
He immigrated to the United States on the ship Massilia from Napoli to Ellis Island. Arrived May 22, 1905. He was 16 at the time he emigrated, so I am unsure if he would have any Italian military conscription or draft papers.
He died on August 8, 1947 in Westport, Connecticut, USA
Any help would be immensely appreciated as I have hit a dead end.
