These are the names I am currently researching - my great grandfather's name-

Martino PELLEGRINO b. 18 May 1869 and my great grandmothers name-Guiseppa BELLERE b. 6 Jan 1872. They were both born in Messina. Any information would be appreciated and also I would be glad to share any information I have.

Hello,

I recently did some research at NARA in Waltham, MA and discovered that my grandfather had another sister that I did not know of. But, it was difficult to read the ships list. It looked like ZAGAMIS or ZAGANIS or something else.

Is anyone researching a surname that may be close to this spelling? The cursive writing was very difficult to read. Does anyone have any idea how I may be able to find the correct spelling?

Thanks,

Linda
