Does anyone know where to find records to or from Aulstralia? I know Ancestry has something - don't they?

This is most of what ancestry has. Some of the databases are actually free!

I did a quick search of the surname. It looks like it is largely American hits. No Australian hits that I see. There seem to be several Zanino family trees. If you have ancestry, you may want to comb through those.

Thanks Poipu. Hey, I thought you fixed your avatar? I still do not see it. Confused
