Welcome
This Acri Families Website was created to provide resources to amateur genealogists who trace their ancestry from the town of Acri in the province of Cosenza, region of Calabria, Italy. I wanted people researching their Acri ancestry to have an alternative that didn't require paying for a yearly membership at Ancestry.com.
This site is still very much under construction so please bear with me. I am adding genealogical information for a large number of individuals from nineteenth and early twentieth century Acri to the pages of this site on a weekly basis. If your immigrant ancestor came from Acri, there will be a good chance you tie into someone aready in this database.
This site is dedicated to the children of Acri who were stillborn or died young. They have no descendants to remember them. Only a few dedicated genealogists who work collateral lines will ever know their names.
They are the forgotten.
How to Use this Site
This Website has several features that a researcher may find useful. As this is still a young site, a few sections are still under construction and will be for a while.
Follow these links for a description of each resource. If you have a question or can’t find what you’re looking for, contact me. I’ll do my best to answer your question.
