My great grandfather (Giuseppe Argenti) left Italy and arrived in the U.S. in 1888. After setting up a home in Detroit, MI he had his wife (Anna Bandini) come to the U.S. in 1890. The wife traveled with their first child (Florence Argenti). Giuseppe and Anna had a total of 5 children, Florence, Josephine, Vincenza, Anthony & Sadie. Vincenza was my grandmother. I am hoping by making this posting, I may run across other descendants of Giuseppe and Anna who are also interested in the genealogy of this family and can help me fill in many missing blanks on my family tree.

However there is one in Michigan, 17 in New Jersey, 18 in New York, etc. If you do the search by state, you can probably locate all of them. Obviously, some won't be descendants of your ancestors, but some contact letters, explaining your search, may be of use to you. Good luck, Joe in Texas
