Hi and thank you for the advice. I've noticed both of the microfilms you mentioned from working around the familysearch.org site, and wondered how that worked to view them. So I will do what you suggest and go down to a center and see if they can get that for me.

And yes, I'm looking for information regarding the listed persons deeper ancestry in Italy. One of the brothers listed, Alfredo Cassandra, was my grandfather, who emigrated to New York in 1912, for which I have the Declaration and Petition info and ship arrival info. On his marriage certificate to my grandmother he lists his father as Rocco and his mother as Felicia Picciotta. He named his first two children Rocco and Felicia, so he seems to have followed italian naming convention. So finding births, marriages, deaths directly from Venosa or Spinazzola records would be great if I can figure it out with the Library.

Thanks again for your advice. Take care.

Jon
