Re: Two pictures in Sicily?

Is this a picture of just the one monument with the word "Girgenti" on it? I looked at it again and it looks like that is the first picture for definite sure. Does anyone know where the second monument is?

Re: Two pictures in Sicily?

Also, are they city markers or grave sites? I do have relatives with the last name of Girgente but also know that people may have been named for the cities they lived in.

Two pictures in Sicily?

I think I have attached two pictures of my great grandfather in Italy in the 1950's or so. My husband and I are planning a trip and I'd like to go to these same places since I believe they are part of my ancestry. My first guess is somewhere in Agrigento, Sicily. If there is anyone who knows and can ...

Re: Stefano Crisafulli

I have been trying to post to this page for two days and it didn't work so, hopefully, today it will. I just wanted to again thank all of you for helping me out. If my husband and I ever get to Sicily this will make the trip all that more meaningful. I am learning a lot about my ancestors and ...

Re: Stefano Crisafulli

I just made it to the picture page!! I don't know who they all are but I love them already! I hope that the Frank who was inquiring before is still watching this thread. His Francesco may have just popped up.

Re: Stefano Crisafulli

I have to say, you all have helped me a lot more than the Family History Library did both with research and with information. I visited the OC branch with my mom a few weeks back trying to find this information and they couldn't find any more than I had already. I feel like the helper I had was ...

Re: Stefano Crisafulli

Oh my goodness...I want to cry with happiness. Thank you so much! Today is an easy day for me so I am going to take some time and read all the information this group has given me in much depth. I am going to print it, write it out and log it all. I am going to learn from it all and hopefully get ...

Re: Stefano Crisafulli

So, just a general question if I may. How did you find those documents on Familysearch so easily? I spent at least a month looking on that site for the information you found so easily. So they are there- I just don't know how to access them. Any help with that would be great so I can try to find the ...

Re: Stefano Crisafulli

Thank you MMongo!! Is this Stefano related to me? This may be the "Plaque" Stefano from earlier in our posts. I am having the hardest time separating all of them!!

Re: Stefano Crisafulli

I just want to again say Thank You to you all! I have just added these names to the Ancestry tree (hoping I have them right) and am excited to share my father's fathers side with him and my aunts.

I now just need to transfer the links to the documents to Ancestry. I appreciate SO much how clearly ...

Re: Stefano Crisafulli

You are not kidding about numbering the Stefanos!! I am so confused trying to add these to my ancestry chart. I am not even going to get into Giuseppe Crisafulli right now (who I think is Antonino's brother).

For now, Just to clarify: Carmela has a father AND a husband named Stefano Crisafulli ...

Re: Stefano Crisafulli

Frank-
Those names do not sound familiar but I will not count them out. I found a Felix Crisafulli that I would never have guessed was a part of my tree except for the DNA test on Ancestry. Turns out he is my GGF father's brother...I think. If I find any of those names on my tree I will let you know ...
