Laura, Thank you thank you again! Yes I have a lot to digest, and will be working on these leads for a very long time. I can't tell you how much I appreciate this! It would have taken me forever (or never) to get all of this information. Where do you live? US or Italy? I would love to be able to ...

This is unbelieveable! How did you find all of this!? I can't believe that I may have some other family in the US that I didn't know about. I thought they were all in Italy. The date I had for my grandfather's marriage to Rosalia was Sept 24, 1911. That is what came from St. Patrick's Cathedral in ...

OMG! You are wonderful!!!! This is the information I have been searching for!

Thanks for the info on the historical family certificate. I will try that. I would love to get more info about the ...

I am new to this site and am impressed with how much info there is - and all the folks willing to help! I have been trying to get info about my grandfather Guiseppe D'Anna for some time. He was born in Monreale Sicily on March 17, 1883 or 84. He came to the US around 1900-1905 but I can't find the ...

I am a D'Anna and trying to trace my grandfather's family. They are from Monreale (outside Palermo). His name is Giuseppe D'Anna born around March 17, 1883 or 84. He emigrated to NY around 1905. Married Rosalia Madonia, also from Monreale and had my father Joseph in 1923 and two other girls ...
