Nasca, Gaetano Birth record

Post by jecullen3 »

I've been unable to locate my Paternal Grandfather's birth record. Not on Ancestry, FamilySearch, or other genealogy search engines I've found.

I have discovered these facts through the above research sites and from family members who are now deceased:

DOB: 07 June 1887 (WWI Draft registration)
From: Palermo (WWI Draft Registration, Ship Manifest)
Father's Name: Salvatore (Ship Manifest)
Arrival in US: Ellis Island, 1906 (Ship Manifest)
Occupation: Barber (Ship Manifest, Census records, Deceased family members)
Married/Lived and Died: Brooklyn, NY (Marriage and Census records, as well as deceased family members)

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Thank you so much for your quick reply! Is the birth index online? I would love to know so I can continue my research. I have found the "Allegati" record for the marriage of Salvatore and Anna Pirrone. It would be nice to know if they had other children so I can add them.

Thank you again.

Marcello is a researcher in Italy he has access to indexes for Palermo
Did Salvatore Nasca have any children with his first wife Maria Nicosia?

Marty,

I haven't found any children by Maria Nicosia, however, I do not have access to the indices since I am in the US. If I find anything, I will be sure to let you know.

Marty,

Maria did have 3 children by her first husband, Giovanni Di Marzo:
Rosario, 26 March 1849
Andrea, 6 June 1851 (Andrea was Maria's father's name - assuming male child)
Rosalia, 25 January 1854

But none by Salvatore Nasca. (I think she was too old by the time she married him :) )

I owe Hugh Tornabene a world of thanks. His hard work has made my family tree grow by leaps and bounds! He has almost completed the Birth index - what an enormous task.

Mary
