Two issues. One, I have no DOB, the date of marriage or date of death for my Great Grandparents Dominic Leone and Mary Nicolazzo.

There son, my grandfather, Antonio Leone who was born 1 Dec 1877 in Nicastro, Sant’Eufermia, Lamezia, Cantanzaro, Calabria, Italy, I assume both my great grandparents were from in or around the same area. I was informed that many records from Nicastro were sent to Lamezia Terme many years ago.

Secondly, and here’s where things get complicated. My grandmother, Rosa Stephana Torchia-Montana was born 9 Dec 1876 and again I assume in Nicastro, Cantanzaro, Calabria, Italy. She married my grandfather, Antonio Leone on 26 Jun 1897. There’s some confusion concerning her name and/or if she was adopted.  She arrived in New York, New York, USA 1 Mar 1903. 

The reason I seek this information is that there are 9 -14 of us going to Italy this year in hopes of finding any living relatives.  Please help!

Do you have your grandmother's parents? I see that you posted this question in the Italy Community group as well. I hope you will get it answered.

Neither I nor any relatives in the USA know my grandmothers parents. It's a complete blank.
