Fulco family research

Post by mfulco »

I'm looking for information about my italian great-grand-father, VICENTE FULCO, mainly his city of origin in Italy or his entry records in Brazil.
The oldest document I have is the birth certificate of my grand-father, also called VICENTE FULCO, born in the city of Mar de Espanha, state of Minas Gerais (MG), in BRAZIL, on July 12th 1904. His ancestor's names on this birth certificate are:
Father (my great-grand-father): VICENTE FULCO - born in Italy (city not specified)
Mother: MARIA SALEMA FULCO - born in Italy (city not specified)
Father's Parents: JOSÉ FULCO and MARIA ANGELA.
Mother's Parents: JOSË SALEMA and ANTONIA ALTROSI

I would be thankful for any information about the FULCO family, its origin in Italy and immigration to Brazil.

As you know you need the town oforigin in Italy for all records and history of your family. There are several Brazil websites . There is one www.memorialdoimigrante.sp.gov.br/formular.Html. Try www.genealogia.com.br and www.imigrantesitalianos.com.br. www.fratellanza.org.br. Lots of luck Peter

Your great-great-grandfather first mane was probably VINCENZO quite common in Sicily.

Fulco is mainly sicilian from PALERMO area
or ENNA area (the so called enterior Sicily)

Many Fulco migrants to USA came from

CEFALU' (near Palermo)

CALASCIBETTA (near Enna)

NICOSIA (near ENNA)

The surname SALEMA doesn't exist at the moment. But there are a lot of SALEMI. Too many!!!
