The records at rose to degli abruzzi do not show my grandfather being from there. Yet the ship registry from Ellis island show that he place of origin was montepagano abbruzzo. Part of the problem may be that upon arrival his name was misspelled Any suggestions
Thank you
Montepagano is the old town on the hill above modern Roseto degli Abruzzo. My in-laws came from Montepagano around 1910 before Roseto was established. The church in Montepagano has records dating back to the 1600’s of birth, baptism, marriages and deaths. Don Borghesi was the local priest ( had been for more than 20 years) last time I was there about 6 years ago, he can look through the records for you. The church is Maria Assunta.

Thank you so much for your reply. While it is unfortunate that I didn’t see your reply until now December 30,1917 over 2 years since my trip the good news is that I was successful in tracking my grandfather’ birth records. As is turns out the city government building in Roseto was able to find all of the records of my grandfathers entire family before they moved. They made copies for me and were wonderful. I found the church as well but the priest was away so I didn’t get any records there. But I connected with family still in the area
Thanks again and happy new year

Hello.
Anyone in Montepagano that can retrieve ancestry information from 1750 to 1600s?
Mr. DeGennaro, Try FamilySearch.org. It is a free site and has many Italian records, so you’ll want to set up an account. It is a shared platform, so it may be that someone (family members you don’t even know exist but related thru a common ancestor many generations past, perhaps) has already been working your line and there is information on your family members. Whether that is the case or not, there are many records there for Montepagano … when you get into familysearch.org, go to the Search tab and choose the Catalog option. The default search is by place and that’s where you want to be. Start typing in Montepagano and the collection for Italy, Teramo, Montepagano will appear below the box – click on that choice and then click on Search. that will bring up a collection for Italy, Teramo, Montepagano – Civil Registration; click on that. That will bring up 5 sets of record collections for Montepagano; choose the one most likely to contain your ancestors records (could be more than one collection, depending on the date(s). I have family from this area and I’m fairly certain that these are “restricted” records which means that you will have to be in a Family History Center in order to access them. I don’t know where you live, but you can find the nearest FHC by going, once again, to the Search tab and choosing the Wiki option. On the left hand side of the Wiki page, there is a link for Family History Centers (not to be confused with Family History Library which will give you information for the Library in Salt Lake City); click on that link. Within the article under the subject of “Finding a Family History Center”, click on the blue link “Find a Family History Center”. Type your city, state, province, whatever in the box next to the Search button and then click on the Search button. It will bring up FHC(s) near you and should give you times the FHC is open and contact info. Staff will be more than happy to help you with your search. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at [email protected].
