Question:

IMPORTANT italy QUESTION please help!!!!!!?

My great-grandfather came over from Italy in 1908. His name was FRANK LAVIGNA. In the town that he came from (Cercepiccola, Campobasso, Molise, Italy) , his name is still registered/recorded as a presently recorded surname. That means that his brothers/sisters who DID NOT come to America may have had children in Italy, which means that we have 3rd or 4th cousins living in Italy! I dont know how to find this out and who IS related to me in this town. Is there any ITALY WHITE PAGES where i can write a letter to a person bearing my last name?
