Would like to obtain history of both sides of my family on the Italian side. Some stories that I heard when I was a child was that the Rossi side were merchants and had a fleet that went to the Orient and traded in the Meditteranian Sea. If you know or can assist, please advise. EFRossi1 @ aol.com

Very interesting. The second link that you had was from he Victoria that was the boat my grandfather came accross in 1900. Found out that he was 16 years of age.
Still trying to find out if he had any brothers or sisters.
You have been very helpful.
Appreciate your help.
What info do you have of the Capaldi family? here? Italy?
Best regards,
Ernie

I'll keep my eye out for more info on your Family.
The Capaldi Family info i have is up to My Great Great Grandparents. I am trying to find out where they were born. I know some of their Children were born in Cassino and then their Children in Bristol, Liverpool, Dublin, Detroit, New Castle, Pennsylvania, etc.
