BRATTA brothers

Post by bull1982 »

Hi friends!

Need some census info for two brothers Francesco and Germano BRATTA.
They both arrived in 1923 and moved to Illinois.

I found a FRANCK BRATLA recorded in 1930, maybe one of the two...

Any help is really appreciated!
Thank you

I know it been 12 years.

I know of two brother of six kids. The two boys are Frank and Luigi Bratta. Both are from Ceglie del Campo, Bari, Italy. Could this be the frank you are looking for? Frank spent some time in Ohio, but both Frank and Luigi eventually made it to Illinois.

Garmano “James” Bratta is my grandmothers father. It is a family mystery what happened to the two brothers. My grandmother was born in 1925 and was told he went back to Bari when she was 5. I have a marriage certificate of him and my great grandmothers marriage.
