Are there churches in these villages? Is there a way to request records from churches?
Thanks for any help.

Thank you, mmogno, I appreciate your help!
I wasn't expecting that many churches in two small villages! Is there any way to find out how old these parishes are? Santa Maria di Constatinopoli looks modern, but may have replaced an older church. I'll have to find out where the family lived to see which parish is most likely to have records from 1901.
Thank you again.

They are not small villages! Today they have about 50,000 inhabitants altogether!

Point taken, PippoM. 
I'm afraid I'm thinking of the area as it was over 100 years ago when my grandmother lived there.
When I saw that my great grandparents' street led to Piazza San Giovanni Battista and that church was only a two minute walk from their home, I thought I had their parish church. But I checked, and located all the other churches in Angri. To my surprise S. Maria di Constantinopoli was a 3 minute walk in the opposite direction. It didn't seem a likely match, as that church has a much more modern look. But I checked. As it turns out San Giovanni is the "new" church (1180 AD) while the "modern" S. Maria di Constantinopoli (with a new facade) was built around the year 700!
