I am trying to find out what part of Italy my great-grandfather was from. The only information I have is that his last name was Dominici. His wife's name was Teresa. He died in his late twenties. His wife put all her children in a Rhode Island state institution because she could not take care of them. She got remarried and took out the youngest child. My grandfather and his brothers remained there until they were teenagers. My grandfather's name was Umberto Dominici. The institution americanized his name to Albert Domenico. Please help me figure out where my grandfather was born.

HI:and year of emigration? First name Umberto's father?Maiden name Teresa?I found an Dominici family emigrated in 1888 in USA-final destination New York-origin's place unknown:
Father Bartolomeo Dominici;childs:Maria(age 15),Rosa(age 6), Leonilda(age 4), Luisa(age 11)..port of departure Le Havre -France...
Suggestion?
More: sure this surname was present in Tirolo area(Italy north), in Sicily region and emilia Romagna region.
Others detail?Others info?
