Thank You!

Hi everyone!
I love the FHC microfilms! You can get some really cool information and go pretty far back, it's a lot of fun. So anyway, I found an ancestor of mine who came from Caltagirone in the early 19th century. I was wondering if anyone knew of any websites or books that have a lot of ...

I'll revive this question because I have the same one. In lists of Italian occupations it is simply said to mean a trader. All the women on my grandmother's side, from Adrano and Santa Maria di Licodia in Catania, are listed as industriosa for their occupation. It is also intreseting because it is ...

Wow thank you for the insight, as well as the photos.

Thank you a lot. That really is a sad thought, especially the idea of everyone knowing who the parents are and have to live in that town. Lucia probably felt like there was something wrong with herself that they could not want her. But even if we can't know who her parents are it makes her no less ...

Hello everyone,
I was researching a side of my family that come entirely from Barrafranca. However, I came to a new line from Caltagirone. My GX4Grandfather Salvatore Razza was born about 1821 in Caltagirone. He married Lucia Farinello in Barrafranca. The marriage act says Salvatore was raied in ...

Hi,
Yeah it is very interesting how a family can grow so big and all come from one same immigrant ancestor. It's a little bit more likely with rarer surnames like in some of my Sicilian family but I am also related to the Acadian Boudreau family and they all come from this same one guy, Michel, who ...

Do you suspect Venara died in the Pennsylvania? If you do, and guess in the 1920s or early 30s, maybe you can check indexes for Penn vital records? Perhaps at the Pennsylvania State Archives or if you guys have a vital records department in the state (though they might not be willing to do research ...

Hi Mauro,
I do not see any Ettore Pirozzi arriving in the 1870s. There are several with that name as well, a birthplace would help focus the search.

There is an Ettore Pirozzi who arrived in the US 1903 and was born about 1866 in Molfetto. He is listed as being American. There is a passport ...

Sorry for all the link confusion :D They always get mixed up. Basically what I have on that ancestry page are 2 pages of Antonino Ronsisvalle & Arcangela Grasso's marriage, then an index for their marriage, and then 2 pages for the marriage of Arcangela's brother Angelo.

You have been super ...

Thank you for the help Tess and Marty!

I'm not sure if this is the other page you are looking for or not or if I am being redundant and posted something I have already posted:

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me translate/read this marriage record for my great-great-great-grandparents. It is from 1830. I can read and translate it pretty well as I have gone through a lot of Sicilian records but this has a lot of writing on the second page I could use ...

Hello,
Where does your Filippa Salamone come from and what is her time frame? I am wondering because there are several Pietro Salamones in my line, but not this one as there is no Olimpia Mina. My family comes from Barrafranca and wondering if there was a possible relation.
