Was wondering if anyone with the 'Ciraulo' surname can trace their ancestry to Sicily and, if so, in what towns?

We have relatives in Polizzi Generosa but a quick search of the birth and death records in Sicily show that some relatives may have come from Trapani in the 1700's.

We are a very small family. Anyone out there match this lineage?

Susan:
Ciraulo is a relatively uncommon last name. I traced Ciraulo's back to Trapani in Sicily back to the 1700's.

Your family may be from this town or a town called Polizzi Generosa, Sicily. Other names from the Ciraulo's might be Giresi. Any of this help? Write back and let me know.

That's terrific! Our families are probably related. My fathers' mothers maiden name was Giresi. My grandmother's sister married a man whose last name was Bracciaforte. They still live on Via Vinciguerra in Politizi G. Sound familiar???

My husband and I went there back in 1989. It's beautiful! Let me know if any of this sounds like a connection!

Regards!

The following is what my daughter Mindy wote.

I have made a bulletin board for the discussion of different Family Tree branches. You have to "join" to be able to post to it, but it is my own board, on my own site, with my own code, so there is nothing to be afraid in joining. The board is located at http://www.stampola.com/forums/ if you want to check it out and post answers there for us to discuss and share. Or, you can email and I will just process anything.

So, here are the questions:

Do any of these names or places ring a bell with you guys, if so I can give further details on most of this stuff as I have the copies of the Manifests from Ellis Island. Most of these individuals were either going to Elizabeth Street, NY or Reed or Anita in Indiana County, PA, or they were are person that someone was going to see. Almost all of them are also from the Grotte, Girgenti region of Sicily. All of these people were in one way or another travelling together with a Ciraulo, and going to the Elizabeth Street or NY address, or going to Reed, PA or a PA address from Grotte.

I have in my husbands family Joseph Cimino m.Catherine Pagano. Lived in Canandaigua, NY and Rochester, NY. I know he had relatives in Niagara Falls that he visited. He had 1 brother that I know of but not his name. He came from Sicily, Palermo area before 1915. If you find a connection please let me know.

I have a nephew, by marriage, named Charles Ciraulo. He is from the San Jose area. I believe is father's name was Ignacio or Ignacious. I am not positive. His mother's name was Edith Rocca. I am actually trying to research the Rocca name.
