Valenti/e Family

[summergirl75]

It is interesting in that some of my Valenti/e relatives also come from Medford. I am trying to figure out a common connection if any. Especially since some of my valenti/e's are also buried at Holy Cross in Medford. It will be interesting to see if there is a connection.

Hello. I am also a Valente. I can honestly say I do not know much about my family, but this is what I do know.

My Grandfather's name was Ernesto or Ernie Valente. I know he had a sister named Mary. I do not know if he had any other brothers and sisters. Ernie Valente married Audrey Browsoski (sorry if I spelled that wrong Grandma!). My Grandfather, Ernie, passed away when he was around 32 years old. Ernie and Audrey had 5 children. Matthew Valente, Christina Valente, Mike Valente, and Pat Valente. I have been trying to find out more about my Grandfather and the town he lived in Italy. All I have been told is that its a small town in the foothills of the Alps. I tried going to Ellis Island.com - but couldn't locate information on my Grandfather. I believe he was between the ages of 7 and 11 when he came here with his Aunt and Uncle from Italy.

If anyone has information on the town he may have been from, I would love to know - or any additional information on my Grandfathers family.

Does someone know Alina Valenti, about 83 years old living in Medford, her relatives should be Peter Valenti, Alinda Valenti, Bruno Valenti, Pietro Valenti, Sonia M Valenti etc. ? Alina Valenti lived in Italy in Villagio S. Marco Fossoli di Carpi (Modena).

Best regards,
Irina

My maiden name was Valenti; George was my father, Alina, my grandmother, Sonia, my aunt, etc... I have one sister (the one you tried to e-mail) I am looking to find any info, pictures, about my dad and his family. Please message back!!

Looking for help extending my wife's Valenti line. I'm currently stuck with her great-great grandfather Giuseppe Valenti (b. ~1846 (one of his trips to America indicates place of birth as Niscemi), d. after 1925 (he immigrated to America 1925). His wife was Marianna Russo (b. ~ 1848, d. likely before 1925 Sicily). Giuseppe had at least 2 siblings (both were listed as nearest living relative on arrival in America (2 separate trips)):
Gaetana Valenti (no known birth or death)
Antonino Valenti (no known birth or death)


I know of at least 4 children from various trips to America:
Giuseppe Valenti (b. ~ 1874 Niscemi, d. ??) Only record I have of her is arrival in America 1912.
Gaetana Valenti (b. 1875 Niscemi, d. 1919 NY, USA) married Nunzio Scarentino *My wife's Great grandmother* (may have married in Sicily)
Gaetano Valenti (b. 1884 Niscemi, d. 1972 NJ, USA) married Biagina Cagnina (married in America)
Alfonso Valenti (b. ~1890 Niscemi, d. ??) Cannot find any record of him after arriving in NYC 1909

I would love to extend the family line back another generation, but would also like to have any birth or marriage records for Giuseppe/Marriana Russo OR Gaetana/ Nunzio Scarantino.
