Bonjour, je ne parle pas votre langue mais vous pouvez me répondre en Anglais ou en Français, je ne sais pas ou vous vous trouvez , mais comme tous les Français qui portent le beau nom de SORARUFF ou SORARUF ou SORAUF, nous serions heureux de faire votre connaissance et de connaitre vos origines avec vos connaissances sur ce sujet, mon arrière Grand Père Simon SORARUFF était né à Campitello (Italie) et mon grand père, Joseph SORARUFF était de la Vallée du Montafon en Autriche, Joseph a immigré en France avec son frère Gebhart, c'était vers 1895, Joseph a eu 6 enfants et le dernier vivant est mon père, Albert le plus jeune qui va avoir 92 ans, voila pour résumé notre petite histoire, j'oubliai, la majorité de la famille est installée dans la région de TROYES en Champagne département de l'Aube, à environ 180 Kms de Paris.
Merci de bien vouloir me répondre. Jacques SORARUFF;

We are the SORARUFF of France, Simon is the back grandfather of my husband David (his grandfather is Jean).

I make genealogical searches (researches) for several years and we know that there is a branch in Italy and in America.

We would be very satisfied to exchange information on the origin of our family and to get acquainted with you by internet. Here is my email address :

Soraruf Family of Campitello

My great-grandfather was Luigi Soraruf, b. 1867 in Campitello, which is now northern Italy but was once Tyrol, Austria.

Luigi and his brother, Jacob, settled in Ironwood, Gogebic County, Michigan. Their brother Battista came to the U.S. for a short time but returned to Campitello, where their branch of the family still lives.

On his marriage license, Luigi gave his mother's name as Teresa Presilla but another relative has it spelled Teresa Spignol.

He gave his father's name as Cristano Soraruf. Family lore says Cristano remarried after Teresa died and that he had another son named Barttma.

Some of the Soraruf families changed the spelling of their name to Sorauf. Another branch of the family, although we don't know yet how they're connnected, spell the name Soraruff.

Would love to hear from anyone else who is also researching the Soraruf, Sorauf or Soraruff families.
