There are more than 200 persons currently in the Naples province with the Donadio surname. In Italy you need to know the town of origin in order to find out anything about your family or obtain odcuments. Your best bet is to research the www.ellisisland.org website for your people and see from what town they are from in the "Naples" areas which I suspect could mean anywhere in Southern Italy beyond Naples or Naples Province. You can go to www.paginebianche.it and insert the Donadio surname in the first line and NA for Naples p;rovince in the third line which also includes the cityh of Naples and then clcik CERCA for the listings.

You do not have to speak italian to read a telephone directory. There is a persons name, followed by a street address (V=street) followed by a postal or zip code foloowed by the town and the intials in brackets is the province in which the town is located. There is a telephone number which is self explanatory. If you wish I will write it out for you. Peter

Peter,

The closest name I was able to find for Caviano was Caivano, Campania, Italy.


I hope this helps.
