Have you sent away for her birth act and her first marriage act? Might be a great place to start. It should give you her parents names and it would be interesting to see who the witnesses are...

So you have all her American records, then?

YES AND YES! Thanks Nuccia. So I must have spelt Deluca wrong. It's with two c's. Vito Sapienza(birth approx. 1880) married Rosaria D'Urso. (birth approx. 1886) Joseph was born June 18,1918 and was married to Nancy Catania. He died Dec. 6,1995. He had a brother Benny too. I don't have any birth dates on him or anything.
The other list is my Great Grandfather Francesco and his wife Grazia.
I need to get a copy of this for my album. I don't have all the birth acts yet and I will be going to LDS Family History Center tomorrow to look at the Civil Registration film ~ birth 1893 and Matrimoni 1866-1885. Thank you so much!

Great finds Nuccia!!

Good luck at the center tomorrow Rita. I think finding the various marriage documents will really help.

Good night girls kiss

Thank you Nuccia. I am now trying to understand how to work the flash drive to transfer it to this site. I find it easier with the CD instead!

Hi Rita,
Plug your flash drive into a usb port (small rectangular) on your computer. Go to your desktop (or main screen of your computer). Go to the picture of a computer and under it will say "my computer". Double click on it. You should then see all of the drives on your computer and one will be called removable drive or usb. Double click that and everything on your flash drive should come up. You can then go to edit on your menu, select all, copy then open a window in windows explorer, find the folder you want to put your documents in and then go to edit and select paste.

I hope this helps.

Nuccia~ "Could this be your Angelina?"
Hi Everyone...I was told by my cousin that this Angelina is the mother of Vito's wife Rosaria "DeLucca" D'Urso. She is in the 1920 census but not in 1930 because she probably has died by then. Thank you for helping me with this. Very Happy
