Trying to find comune and birth info: GGF Pasquale Ricci

[lmottla]

Hello!

I am trying to find the comune where he was born and a birth record for my Great Grandfather: Pasquale Ricci.

I've searched extensively on FamilySearch, Ancestry and The Ancestors Portal. It's a common name so any help or new searching ideas or strategies would be greatly appreciated!

Name: Pasquale Ricci, maybe Pasquale J. Ricci (J. is on Ancestry/unknown source)
DOB: Year 1864,1863. Gravestone says 1864.
DOB Place: Benevento - although I don't know where this info came from. It's in an Ancestry tree.
Arrived in US: ~1885
Married: Anna Latessa, August, 4, 1887 at age 22 in Providence, Rhode Island
His marriage certificate says father's name: Giosue, Mother's Name: Louisa
His death certificate says father's name: Gesuele Ricci, Mother's name: Louisa DiVencenzo
Both Giosue and Gesuele seem to be valid names.
Death: June 19, 1938, Somerville, MA
Children: Louisa, Amalia, James R., Joseph, Adeline, Alfredo, William, Italo

Thanks very much!
Lesley

If you were searching the indexed records on the above sites, you need to be aware that not all records have been indexed . These two surnames are found in the province of Frosinone and very few of their records are indexed and online.

You need to look for ship manifest, naturalization, records, etc. in America, which are all likely to give you the town of origin. If not, we have a brick wall service that you might be interested in.
