tracing my Italian roots...

Post by ptimber »

There are 308 persons surnamed Di Clemente in Abruzzo spread across several provinces. The town of origin is necessary in order to obtain information and documents. Since you don\'t know the town (apparently) go to www.ellisisland.org and look up your family members entry into the USA as immigrants. When you find the right name click on the name and then click on the upper left for the ships manifest and then enlarge it and find the town they came from. From there your home free and get back to me. Peter
