Travel from Brazil to Italy - Do Records Exist?

Post by Pblackwood »

Do records exist that show the names of people traveling to Italy? Specifically, I’m looking for records for travelers sailing to Italy from Brazil between 1901 and 1911.

My 2nd great-grandmother, Rosaria Babuscio, her second husband (Pasquale Dente) and their two daughters sailed from Naples to Brazil in 1901. I have found records showing their arrival in Sao Paulo, Brazil in January 1901. The family was back in Altavilla Irpina, Avellino Prov., Italy by 1911, when the eldest daughter gave birth to a child there. In 1912, Pasquale Dente died in Altavilla and his death record shows that he was the widower of Rosaria Babuscio. I haven’t found any Italian records of her death in Altavilla or in neighboring towns, so I am assuming Rosaria died in Brazil, however, I have not found any Brazilian records to prove this. A document showing the rest of her family returning to Italy without her would be helpful.

Thanks very much for any info you can provide.

Do you know where and when the eldest daughter's wedding took place?

No, I don't know where she was married. She and her husband had a child (my grandmother's 1/2 first cousin) in Anapolis, Brazil in 1905. That information comes from the cousin's US naturalization papers, and I haven't found anything online about records for Anapolis. On the 1901 paperwork for their arrival in Sao Paolo, the family said they intended to travel to S. Pedro. The marriage could have happened anywhere, if it happened at all.

And thanks for the info that there's no available paperwork about their travel back to Italy.

PippoM,

Thank you very much! I had been looking for Anapolis with that spelling, rather than with the spelling you linked. I live close to a Family History Center, and will search for my distant cousin's birth record the next time I'm there. Hopefully, that will lead to other records.
