Looking for parents of Luigi Pranno

[Tz85]

Hi All

I'm looking for the names of my gg grandfather Luigi Pranno's parents. I believe Luigi was born in Cosenza, Calabria. He married a Stella Agostino, I believe in the states. Could anyone find me the names of Luigi Pranno's parents? Stella Agostino's parents as well? Thanks

Tz

As you can see from Marty's posts...

Luigi's father's name was actually Gioacchino (Jack is the Americanized form)

Mother was Rosaria Serpe.

Thank you. I was pretty sure about the Vitella, our family called her Stella. So Luigi's parents were Gioacchino Pranno and Rosaria Serpe. Vitella's parents were Antonio Agostino, and Vita Antonia Marra.

Looks like Luigi was from Marano Marchesato

[Tz85]

Is their any way to trace the Pranno or Agostino lines farther back? It looks like our Agostino line has been in the USA 1 generation earlier.
