Barbieri Family from Cerreto Sannita and neighboring towns, Benevento, Compania, Italy
My Barbieri family is from Cerreto Sannita, Italy and its neighboring towns such as Pietraroja. I have traced my family to the mid 1500s. To date I have secured almost every single Barbieri record from Cerreto Sannita and other towns, such as Civil and Church Birth, Marriage, Death Records, Notary Records, the 1743 Catasto Onciario, and US Records (immigration, census, vital records, etc). My database consists of about 2500+ individuals including spouses, known children etc.
The surname BARBIERI was Americianized as Barbieri, Barberi, Barberie, Barbeire and Barber.
Some of the surnames of people who married a Barbieri in 1500s-1800s were: Bellucci, Barile, Ungino, Litrenta, Petronzi, Fapprano/Fappiano, Cofrancesco, Cappella, Di Meola, Ciaburri/Ciaburro, Amodio, Milotta, Giamei, Mastroianni, Civile, and Fazzini.
Some of the surnames of people who married a Barbieri (and Americanized variations) in the 1900s were: Fitzmaurice, Steinway, Fitzgerald, Charles, Simonelli, Zanatta, Dunham, Leger, McClosky, Ambro, Auletto, Kozlowski, Sjogren, Engel, Scarpinito, Grella, Fontana, Weyl, Ford, Weber, Boyd, Esp, Cox, Furrier, Wick, Cogliano.
Most of my Barbieri family immigrated to the U.S. and settled in Waterbury, CT, New Haven, CT, Brooklyn, NY, Queens, NY, Bronx, NY and Manhattan, NY. Since the later 1900s, their descendants mostly live in the northeast, but many live in other cities across the U.S. I found and visited two Barbieri cousins in Italy.
I am interested in meeting close and distant cousins and sharing information. All inquiries are welcomed. My direct email is michaelbarberi@yahoo.com.

Mike Barberi

WOW, impressive work. I'd like to ask one question... how were you able to secure the records? I need to do this for my mom in law's family but have no idea outside of Ancestry.com how do so. To whom do you write in Italy to get a start?
Thanks

Darlene:
Once I found my family's ancestral Comune, I used the FHL to gain access the Civil Records of Cerreto Sannita 1809-1860 to find other ancestors. The FHL has the Civil Records 1809-1860 of most of the Comunes of Italy. For research the earlier time periods, I used a genealogist in Italy to research Church Records, the Catasto Onciario and Notary Records 1500-1809. The research path that is right for you will depend on the time you have available, the level of effort you are willing to put into it and your budget. I retired early and was able to spend 24/7 on this stuff.
I had to learn how to read Italian Civil Records. There are books on this subject that can help. Nevertheless, it takes time to get proficient. Hence you have to have patience and perseverance. The easier method is to hire a genealogist who can get you started. In one day, a good genealogist can trace your family 3-5 generations to 1809. The cost is about 275-300 euros or about $400-430. If your family came from the Compania area, you may want to contact my genealogist. He speaks perfect English. I have been using him for the past 5 years and he is excellent. His name is Joe De Simone and his email address is joedesimoneitaly@msn.com. Tell him I recommended you.
I realize that my respond may not have answered all of your questions. If you have further questions or if I can help you in any way, just ask. No problem.
Regards,
Mike -
