While I was unable to find a meaning for your name, I was able to
confirm that it was an Italian surname and I found another user that
has the name…this is a link to their post in resolved questions: <a

When you get ready to do research that is beyond what you family can
provide, search our resolved questions for "free sources" or " free
genealogy sites".
answers4: Look on this site, it will help you make a start in
understanding the principles of researching your family history <a
href="http://www.familytreefolk.co.uk/page_11010.html"
rel="nofollow"class=Clr-b>http://www.familytreefolk.co.uk/page_110...</a>
, also www.bbc.co.uk is another good website that will give you all
the information to get you started <br>
Down load family history sheets <a
href="http://www.mcpl.lib.mo.us/genlh/forms/"
rel="nofollow"class=Clr-b>http://www.mcpl.lib.mo.us/genlh/forms/</a>
& starting with yourself fill one in. You will find the sheets act as
a check list you may also find that you don't have all your own
information & have to go searching in your home and asking your
parents/other relations about it, look for any certificates, baptism
cards, wedding invitations, newspaper clippings and any other papers
which can give you information, we all have these and most are put
away and forgotten about. <br>
Look at your own birth certificate, it gives you lots of
information.Fill a sheet in for your parents /any living relations you
have, go & talk to them, ask to see any certificates they have, write
all the information down they give you, just from a marriage cert you
will get both names including the maternal name, where they lived,
married the date, their fathers names, occupations & names of
witnesses...also if the bride/ groom could read & write at that time
as if there is an x in the signature box they couldn't, which also
then helps you later on looking at other records should you find
different spelling of their name.....ask if they have any old
photographs as this gets people talking and remembering other people
in the family they had 'forgotten' about...write down any 'family
stories' you are told, it is all part of your family's history and
culture....some may be correct, however many are not or have some
truth in them and different people in your family will tell you
different versions of the same story, you find once you start
researching you can sometimes use these stories in your research for
clues about where to look at records...........before you go near a
website, this information give you a 'feel' for who your family is and
makes it s much easier to find ancestors once you do start looking at
websites <br>
By using the family sheets it makes it very easy for other relations
to see what you are doing & to understand the information you are
collecting, they are more likely to help & give you more
information....as most at first will say, "I don't know or I haven't
got any idea about our ancestors". It is also nice to be able to give
you relations a copy, as by doing this they will look at the
information, talk about it and may remember more information for you
or even find some paperwork that has been long forgotten. I very often
leave these sheets with family & tell them to add information if they
remember, the more family you ask the better, this information is
first hand information, most family historians regret not having asked
these questions of older family members once they realise how valuable
their knowledge could have been, however many often leave it too late
to ask . <br>
The very best sources of information is in your home, memories of your
living relations, any documents, certificates and newspaper clippings
that many people keep....you will get lots of information, start lots
of interest in what you are doing and will get your family involved in
helping you get started and are more likely to have correct
information <br>
<br>
Good luck in your research
