I am also looking for info on the Papa family in San Fele... in particular a Livia Papa born around 1829, she married Vincenzo Radice.

I'm in the process of renting the LDS San Fele films. I'll let you know if I find any connections.
BTW surnames in my tree are Montano, Radice, Tauriello, and possibly Pierri, Frascella, Ciccio, Cristiano, and Tafaro (I still haven't found a certain birth record to prove most of those).

I also noticed that Grosso is one of your surnames - I have a marriage between Brigida Grosso, daughter of Andrea Grosso, and Sebastiano Montano in 1924. Sebastian returned to San Fele to remarry after his first wife died. It was her second marriage as well. Let me know if you think this is your Grosso family.

Good luck,
Heather

Hi again,

I've just been through the films for 1828-1833 as well as some of the 1810s and did not come across a Livia Papa. Do you have any other names you were specifically looking for?

I found many Papa names, and I hope to get them up on the family trees here soon.

Thanks so much! Unfortunately I only know of the name Livia Papa, and that she and husband Vincenzo Radice had (at least) two children, Michele (b 1859, d 1859) and my ancestor Maria Lucia (b ~1860). I'll keep combing through the films. If your tree is public I will take a look sometime.

Hi, there could be. So far I've been unable to find parents of Vincenza Tauriello (b c1829-?) who married Francesco Montano. So I don't know much about my Tauriello ancestors. I believe Francesco's grandmother was Margarita Tafaro (b c1749?) who married Vincenzo Ciccio, and that goes back pretty far. It's been challenging researching the San Fele area when my primary resource is the civil registration that ends in 1860.
Feel free to message me if you find any links!
