Looking for birth/death records on my ancestors

[Kayjrene]

Hello. I've been doing a lot of research on my family tree. My grandmother Shirley Ross told me that a John Mercurio Ross, who was her great-grandfather, is from Italy and that his name was possibly changed when he came to the US. From what I could find so far, I found out that his father his Adolpho Mercurio and his mother his Rosalia Gamboni. John Mercurio Ross was born in 1850 in Palermo, Sicily, Italy; but I don't have any other information in regards to his parents to continue my research on my Italian family side. I'm needing some assistance if at all possible.

I would greatly appreciate any help.
