Mi chiamo Robert Federici. Sono nato nella città di New York nel 1954 e adesso vivo in Florida, negli Stati Uniti. Sto cercando la mia famiglia in Italia.
Mio nonno Domenico Federici è nato a Bedonia il 17 giugno 1887, figlio di Antonio Federici e Veronica Cavalli.
Credo che vivessero nella Frazione Alpe di Bedonia.
Mio nonno aveva due fratelli, uno si chiamava Antonio e l'altro credo che si chiamasse Agostino.

Mia nonna Silvia Federici è nata a Bedonia il 2 febbraio 1888, figlia di Giuseppe Federici e Angela Trufelli, credo che vivessero in Via Setterone.

I miei nonni Domenico e Silvia si sposarono a Bedonia il 1 Giugno 1907.
Lasciarono l'Italia nell'anno 1909, partendo dal porto di Le Havre a bordo della nave "La Provence" diretti a New York.
Tornarono a Bedonia in visita alle loro famiglie, nel 1924 con mio padre Camillo e sua sorella Renata.

Sono in possesso dei loro certificati di nascita, dell'atto di Matrimonio, del passaporto di mia nonna, e di una loro fotografia scattata nel 1923.
Sarei estremamente grato se qualcuno di Voi potesse aiutarmi a ritrovare il resto della mia famiglia in Italia.
Mi potete contattare a questo indirizzo e-mail:

Robert Federici

Robert,
I did only a few little correction, just to explain better.... as I imagine that this letter can be received also by old people...
Did you see this site about Bedonia?

Thanks Laura,
I was never sure where my Grandparents were from. My father is still alive at 89 but his memory of facts is poor. He remembered Alpe for my Grandfather but thought my grandmother lived in Switzerland. I spent the last year tracking down naturalization papers my fathers birth certificate and since he was the last surviving child I only had him to go by. Just received my Grandparents birth and marriage certificates from Bedonia. I believe Im about 2 months from a appointment with the Italian cosulate. I am applying for my duel citizenship I believe I have everything in order but will see. If I get a response from someone I will travel over this year. I'll let you know if I come over maybe we could meet and share a glass of wine
Bobby
