Grandparents history/Genealogy

Nuccia, if she is using www.ellisisland.org, they don't let you print from it anymore. Your option is to purchase the manifest from them. It is costly, but comes in a large size that is suitable for framing. Of course, if you can get the manifest from ancestry, it is easy to print.

Really? I didn't know this...but there is a way around it. On ellis, click on enlarge manifest. Then right click next to the name. Next, Save Page as...and it should auto save to something like...popup_weif_5a.asp and Webpage.complete. Save it to your desktop. When you open it, it will show the enlarged manifest and you can go tot he right top hand corner of your screen and click file. Print it from there. Hope this is clear, if not, I will create a proper "tutorial"... Very Happy

I tried and you can't right click on the image. It says function disabled. I don't know if there is another way around this. I am definitely not a techie!

Poipu, when you enlarge the manifest image to look at it, though you can't "right-click" on it to save it you will see a set of icons at the upper LEFT corner of the image (it can be seen if you move the mouse in and out of the image) and all you need to do is click on the icon that looks like a floppy disk... when clicking on that, a window will pop up and then you can do the "save as" allowing you to save it to your desktop. I hope that helps Mr. Green

You're right Livio. I also have Firefox and the only way I can get it to save on firefox is by doing what I posted before Liz's post. Did you try that to see if it worked?

Manifest for Teresa De Bellis (sister of Giuseppe) with her children coming from Plaleschis Udine - lists nearest relative as her mother Maria Cobia in Trinidad Colorado ? Going to her husband Giovanni Michelazza in Delagna Colorado. So it looks like Maria Cobia (Kolbia) mother of Giuseppe was living in Colorado when her daughter and grandkids came in 1921. There are other people going to Colorado also....see manifest.
page 1
www.ellisisland.org/EI...;line=0027
page 2
www.ellisisland.org/EI...;line=0027

This is Giuseppe's sister Teresa going to her husband Giovanni Michelazza Delagna Colorado. The heading for nearest relative she listed her mother Maria Cobia in Trinidad Colorado

Hope this helps

ooops....i forgot the siblings names. I got these from my mother many years back. I hope they work
My grandfathers parents were:
father: Joseph DeBellis
mother: Mary Kolbia
My grandmothers parents were:
father: John Zussino
mother: Anna Marzola
my grandfathers brother & sisters were: Celesta,Mary,Teresina & John
my grandmother's brothers & sisters were: Euginio, Benjamino & Maria

I notice Giuseppes wife name is Mary..but on the census its Angela...lets see if we can locate a ship manifest and see if it the same person...and the correct family.

Hi Livio,

I was using the info that Nuccia got from chasr. It's listed here as Kolbia and the manifest has a different spelling (with a C). I'm not sure which is correct or if, as you say, ai instead of ia at the end of the name.

What are your thoughts?

Livio -

I looked at other manifests and you are correct, the surname is spelled Cobai and these people were from the same area in Italy also going to Colorado (Ludlow). Reference Biff's notes on page 1 of this thread.

I checked the LDS films for the places supplied by Biff.

Monteaperta, comune of Taipana - province: Udine - region: Friuli-Venezia Giuli
Platischis, comune of Taipana - province: Udine - region: Friuli-Venezia Giulia

No luck with any records for birth, marriage or death in the comune, province or region. You will have to write and request records. I know that someone on the forum will be able to supply you with the addresses and form letters that you will need.
