Not sure what they are and one was very torn and tattered when copied so its hard to read. I took pics of all three ...

Is there a way to search those birth records by name to see if fillipi had a brother or do I just have to manually go threw each entry per year searching. I tried looking for Michelle cavaliere under 1886 gessopalena but found no entry?

thank you Farassino for the information. Yes 12 years ago I posted similar info request about Cavaliere's from gessopalena. I inquired to the town via the email given about marriage records to continue my search on my fathers side of the family, but never got a response. Life got in the way and I ...

thanks Valarie thats the correct WW1 card the other one I found is for a different Filippo cavaliere. My grandfather settled in the chester area in the 1920's when he brought over my grandmother from gessopalena. I did just find out that Filippo wrote apon entering the country ,that his dads name ...

the Filipo Cavaliere on the draft card may not be the same person i am looking for but I am still interesed in sorting it out? the birth date is off a few years (1888 & not 1893?). It may just be a coinsidence that they are near the same age,have the same name & spelling and both worked for the rail ...

I now have a new twist to my grandfathers origins, I found a copy of a 1917 US army draft registration card for my grandfather fillippo cavaliere, in it he states his birth place as Perdesca,Reggio Calabria Italy? that being said I need to find a contact for that town ,Pardesca, to ask for birth ...

I sent off a request using the formats suggested, all I can do is hope for a response? My uncle will be traveling to gessopalena in October, next month for the first time. he plans on checking out the local church for records on our family if they exist? If they have them would the church release ...
