Looking for the family of Francesco Bambaci and Maria Messana of Villa San Giovani, Reggio Calabria, Calabria, Italy. I have no vital stats on them. They had 2 boy that I know of, Filippo b. 1853, Dominick b. 1857. Filippo married Gerolina Bambara in 1883 in Cannitello. Their daughter, Maria Bambaci b. 1884 in Cannitallo. They immigrated to the US in 1885. They took up residrnce in NYC. They had 4 more children, Frank b. 1892, Victoria b. 1894, Katie b. 1898, Louis b 1901.
Mary Bambaci married my Grandfather, Vincent Castelli in NYC on 7 Apr 1907.
As far as I know, Francesco Bambaci and Maria Messana never left Italy. Maria died from cholera in Italy while visiting her parents with her huband in 1937.
Any help would be appreciated.
