Searching for Vitale of Moliterno and San Martino - Potenza

[garrett_james]

My name is Garrett, and I live in the US. My Grandmother came to the United States from Southern Italy as a young woman. Her name is Grace (Grazia) and her maiden (surname) is Vitale.

She was born in Moliterno - Potenza on January 12, 1927. Her Father was Pasquale Vitale - born March 17, 1895 in San Martino (passed away in 1988). Pasquale Vitale is the son of Achille Vitale

She had two brothers who are both dead. They had no sons. I am trying to find other members of the Vitale family from this region.

Please help me. Thank you so much.

Garrett,

Do you have all the American records you need? (Ex. ship's manifests, censuus records?) Are you looking just for Italian records? If so, the Family History Center has records. Here is the link

If you need further help, let us know.

Thank you for the help. Actually I am just looking for Italian records as my grandmother is the only one from the family who chose to live in the US.

THe link you provided shows film for marriages, death etc...but how do I go about looking at the films?

Sorry for all of the questions as I an very new to all of this.

Thank you so much for the help!

Go to www.familysearch.org for Mormon family history library nearest your home and rent out micorfilm records Misbris pointed you out to. They cost abiout $5.00 to rent and when the micorfilm for the town of origin you ordered bruing along a companion book for the films titled Discovering Your Italian Ancestors by Lynn Nelson but since the records are handwirtten in Italian bring along a magnifying glass to help you rea dthe names and dates. =Peter=
