Hello, i'm looking for my roots. My name is Aldo Mettini i was born in 1974 in the city of Resistencia in the province of Chaco in Argentina, my father Italo Mettini was born in 1928 in te city of Llambi Campbell in the province of Santa Fe in Argentina. His father, Juan Mettini, lived his first years in the city of Emilia in the Province of Santa Fe in Argentina. His ancestors come from Corse (Corcega or Corsica) in the Adriatic sea.
If anyone have more information about the Mettini's from Corcega, i'll be eternitly gratefull of recieving that information.

Hi: Corsica island is in Tirreno sea. This island in 1769 year it passed from Italy to France with the Treaty of Versailles..naturally the surnames were Italian... Currently this island it belongs always to French..

you can insert announcement for genealogy in Corsica(Corse).
For translation in french language, you can use
http://www.systranbox.com/

however many inhabitants of the Corsica never have not accepted to pass to France and have abandoned the island in the course of the years..The Corsi( inhabitants of Corsica Island)like the Sardi(inhabitants of sardegna island near to Corsica) normally they were moved in Toscana and Liguria, Italy's region..
currently Mettini surname is present in 19 italian Common.
I have only considered these two regions from italian white pages http://paginebianche.virgilio.it/ :

In Toscana
http://paginebianche.virgilio.it/pb/cer ... a&x=54&y=2
In Liguria
http://paginebianche.virgilio.it/pb/cer ... a&x=53&y=5

knowing the French language I have executed also a search between documents on line of Corsica island, but Mettini surname not result

excuse my english, regards from Italy, suanj

There are 41 Mettini surnamed persons in Italy but Corsica is French and not Italian so if you are seeking the origins of youir family there I suggest you contact a french forum. I will send you a website for a french forum. If your ancestors came from Italy I will be able to assist you. Peter
