Thank you for your kind help I really appreciate it.

I added to my post above before I read yours.

This extract that you posted states that he was born in Corniglio :-)
Giuseppe sent for this extract in 1920 because it needed it for work.

I don't see Ballone on it :-(

However, the official is stating that this record of birth is in the books in ...

see what I added to my last post :-)

He is probably listed in Part II because he was an orphan...
Be sure to mention that in your letter...

I did. Thank you for your kind help! I will wait patiently for a response. Do you think I should try calling them too? I do not speak fluent Italian ...

Okay, thank you I just wanted to make sure! I was told to contact Corniglio, but I am still waiting patiently for a response Valmozzola has not replied to anything - emails, faxes, and letters. I hope Corniglio does!

Thank you! I will try this. I hope they respond :D Do you have any other recommendations?

Just to clarify, for Giuseppe it is Corniglio I need to contact, right? Not Valmozzola? How about Ballone? I have not tried contacting Ballone before, but I do not think they are a comune.

Giuseppe lists ...

I have one birth record, but it is very old. Here is a photo

As you can see, it is VERY old :( I need a new record of his birth certificate for citizenship. I have contacted Valmozzola for several months, but I did not receive any reply. I contacted Comune di ...

Well, I found his naturalization record and they usually have the CORRECT spelling of the name... His is listed as GLICINI

Do you have this record?
Place of birth is Valmazzola, Italy...
Arrival on Re d'Italia in Feb 1921

This naturalization was 1939 :-)

T.

Yes, this is him. I have this ...

Thank you for posting this! This is what I had found, but this is not him :( I could not see the full record on Ancestry...all I could see was 1892 and Italy, so I thought there might be a chance it was him! My Joseph Glicini naturalized much later than this.

I also see on EllisIsland there are ...

Tessa,

Thank you for your help! I already have this though. He was an orphan, so his parents are not listed anywhere. You have helped me with this before I am just trying to see if there are alternate ways to spell the name Glicini.

But yes, he did die in Florida.

Yes, that is him! However, I am looking for other spellings of his name. I have found his name spelled Glicien, Glicini, and now I am wondering if Joseph Glacini is him too?

Grazie!

I am starting to wonder how many alternate spellings there are of my grandfathers last name. :shock:

I have found there was a Joseph Glacini on Ancestry.com, but I cannot access the record. If you look through my previous posts, you will see I have had some difficulty in finding more records on my ...

Thank you so much I appreciate your kind help, my friend.
