Gargano Family migration toAustralia and Argentina

Post by lyngargano »

Hello everyone,

My father-in-law migrated fromAbruzzo in 1924, to Australia. He also had two brothers - Pariggi and Pietro who migrated to La Plata, Argentina. My father-in-law was Franco and I am married to his son Giulio. If any one has any family information we would love to hear from you. Regards, Lyn

    Thank-you Peter for your interest. My father-in-law
    Franco Gargano resided in Australia until his death in 1973, so we are fine with all of his descendants. However we have had no contact with his brothers Peter and Paris( Pietro and Parigi) who migrated to La Plata, Argentina, and their descendants so it is really the branch of the Gargano family who migrated from Villa San Sebastiano in Abruzzo, Italy that we would love to make contact with. Thank-you for your help.

    Since you have first names then go to www.infobel.com for Argentina telephone directory and select Todos for the entire country. There are about 100 Gargano but if you go thru the list you can be guided by La Plata addresses and first names. Chances are they are related to you or will certainly know who is! Peter
