My father's family is from Monteforte Irpino however I can't seem to determine how I can obtain any records or history of them. Can anyone advise me please ?Thank you.
Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. I have my grandfathers date of birth and exactly when he emigrated to the US. I have been working by myself on this for a few years now however my trail ends in Italy---Monteforte Irpino. I don't know what to do next. He travelled alone but I do have his parents names from his wedding certificate here in New York. Any thoughts ? I'd appreciate anything.
Dear Beatrice That was very helpful. I didn't think of the parish. I went to Agropoli ----my mothers side of the family---a few years ago and also found everyone to be very helpful. We even took pictures with the chief of police ! How far back in your ancestry have you gone ?Vera
