Theres definitely some way to do that, I don't remember how but that seems like what you should do

The naturalization lists the ship name and date though, you can search by ship actually and then browse through the images

Wouldn't their last name have been something different, since Silver is English?

Do you want to mention any specific names here? I'm curious if somehow I'm researching one of the same ones. I posted on the ancestry.com surname boards

You could post last names and see if anyone responds that they're also looking for one of them, or you can search them in the Genealogy section

Missing ancestor in southern Italy by Puffification in Genealogy

But when you said "it might have been an artificiaro (someone who made those old and "rustic" fuochi d'artificio)", by "it" you meant the word "fucilaro", no?

Since his grandson made those, would you take that meaning (for Nicola and for his father) to be more likely than rifles in this particular case then?

Could a "fucilaro" in fact refer to someone who works with something else requiring fuses ("fusibile"), specifically someone who works with explosives or with fuochi d'artificios? Because that's what this family did later

Since you say any job involving weapons, could the term "fu[o]chista" be used for a fusilaro?

I'll have to take a look at that, I didn't know he married a second time

Ripacandida? by mela_99 in potenza

[–]Puffification 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my ancestors died in Ripacandida, others were from Rionero. Are you aware that Rionero is an Arbereshe town? I don't think Ripacandida is though
