Looking for Birthplace

Post by porf »

BirthPlace: I have the ship's name and the Month and Day of departure
from Naples in 1888 of my grandfather, Pasquale Porfido. How can I
find his birthplace from this information.

Es posible que concoces usted la provincia de donde vino Pasquale? Porque hay como 300 y pico Porfido en Italia distribuido por toda la nacion. Eres en Montevideo? Peter NYC
