This is a really great site and I am thankful for the people that provide this information to everyone.

I am looking for my family tree. My mother's maiden name was Carmela Fiorenza and she was born September 14, 1916 from C. Pazzano, Reggie Italy. Her mother's maiden name was Interdonato. She came to the U.S. around the age of 4 in 1921.

Any info you can provide would be appreciated or let me know if you need more information.

Thanks
Mike Pagano

Thank you Biff on taking the time to look this up and posting the links. Now does anyone have information for my family history in Italy?

Your best best, if you have already done all your North American research is to write away to Italy for the information you request or rent the microfilms from the Family Search website and review the records at your local FHC.
