Hi I am trying to trace my family and have hit a brick wall. I would be very grateful for any help or advice anyone can offer.
My great grandfather GiovannBattiste Deplacido emmigrated from Cassino, Italy in about 1892 and settled in Edinburgh with his wife Antonia Verrechia. At some point his father, Michele & grandfather Salvatore came over to Edinburgh too but I do not know if they all arrived together or seperately. There was also at least one brother Angelo.
I would love to find out any information about the family they left behind, how they travelled and also marriage details for GiovannBattiste & Antonia.
I am aware of the problems locating records from Cassino because of the bombing in WW2 so I guess my only hope is other Deplacido/Verrechia descendants.
Looking forward to your replies!
Thanks in advance!

Re: Deplacido from Cassino
yes in Cassino the bombing destroyed so much registries, but in any case in the Archive of Frosinone it are the second registries that was microfilmed by LDs, so available for you; it are the civil records from 1809 to 1900 http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Library ... umns=*,0,0
so you can find the civil records abt your ancestors .. the right surnames spelling in italian are: DI PLACIDO, and VERRECCHIA.. hoping helpful, regards, suanj

Re: Deplacido from Cassino
Do you see / know of a possible sister, Appolonia, who would already have married an Angelo Ceci in Cassino in 1892. They also travelled to Edinburgh in a similar timeframe to those you mention.
They are my great grandparents.

Hi Michael, sorry, only just saw your message.
I don't think I have any information on appolonia? Was she a deplacido or verrechia? I'd be very interested to know if she was related in any way.
Thanks
EJ

Re: Deplacido from Cassino
My grandfathers second cousin married a Nicola Di Placido(mans name) who was also from Cassino.
He was born in 1895ish and married Carmella Capaldi in Detroit and had a daughter called Cristina in Cassino!

Re: Deplacido from Cassino
If your ancestors left Cassino before WW2 it is unlikely you will find their civil records in the reconstructed records microfilmed at the Frosinine Archives as suggested by suanj. Only those persons living in Cassino after WW2 reconstructed their records.

Re: Deplacido from Cassino
Know that this somewhat late. The di Placido's, de Placito's, de Placita's all came for Cassino and San Michelle area and stayed in the same location in Edinburgh - the Grassmarket. Most were musicians, then ice-cream vendors. I have traced that most are cousins, my grandmother a Cece or Ceci, was related through her mother and her husbands mother to them. They married into the Menghilla and Masserella, Valvona and Boni families.
