My greatgrandfather was Guiseppe Tuzzio/Tuzio, in 1899, he married Isabel Kathleen farrell, in Birmingham.
This is the earliest, i have him in England.
On marriage cert, his father is Amadio Tuzio(before 1911, name speltTuzio) and have Amadio on 1901 census living with son and daghter-in-law.Om Marriage cert, his age is given as 26.
Amadio died in 1913, have death cert, no clues there.
Guiseppe had 16 children, ranging from 1899-1925, and died in Bham in 1943.
The only clue as to where in Italy, he was from is from my nan,"somewhere near Rome"!!!(one of his daughters was named ROMA!!) and from a distant cousin, that they lived in caves!!
There is Tuzzio,s in Banbury, which my greatuncle seems to think there is a connection, but ive had no luck there!!
I have tried various Italian sites, but nothing!!
I am beginning to think i will never find his birthplace??
Does anyone have any advice, please??
-
Have a look at http://www.abruzzoforum.com
See Lazio, click on frosinone, scroll down till you come to an entry from "findin ancestry" by Tony Tuzio.
You will find info re this family name, plus a few people you could contact. Seems Tuzio (also called Tuzi) comes from Picinisco/Sora area of Italy.
Good luck
-
Thank you for that Diana,Lazio, could well be the area, they were from, and as my Tuzzios, were spelt Tuzio at first!!
One of the messages is from a researcher in Italy!!
thank you again, im going to email her!I will let you know the outcome!

Hi,
Prior to getting involved with professional Genealogists
I suggest you try these sites:
Michael Vacca is the expert on Picinisco, http://forum.vacca.be/viewforum.php?f=1.
This a Picinisco Forum http://www.picinisco.com/
This in my opinion the best general site for Italian Genealogy on that web http://italiangenealogy.tardio.com/
Ciao George
buona fortuna
-
thank you Wood and Diana, sorry so long in replying!
But have found out my Tuzios from Sora!!Did get the birth records from the LDS centre, and ive been told, in my book on Italian Genealogy, that these records are indexed, but not mine!!Really was impossible to read!!
Have now emailed Italy for birth records and Milatary records, nearly 2 months ago, but no reply as yet!!Was wondering if anyone had ever emailed Italy and got a reply??
Also joined the http://italiangenealogy.tardio.com/, and they are very helpul, the next step i think, if i dont get a reply, is to either write to Italy, or hire a researcher!!

Hi everyone,
Not sure if this thread is still active however I'm looking to find out more about the Tuzzio Family history
I'm Hazel Tuzzio's Grandson, I did a bit of research and found that her parents were Vincent Tuzzio and Rose Elsie Caney,
Her dad, Vincent was son to Guiseppe who was son to Amadio or Anio from Sora (on the 1911 Census)
They all lived in Birmingham, 9 people to three rooms in what was called '5 House 8C Bartholomew' in the District of St Martins in Digbeth.
It would be great if anyone had anymore information or photos of the Tuzzios
Thanks,
-

Hi Garstonite,
Thanks for the info, strange how some have the extra 'z' added to the surname and others don't? I wonder why
-
Hi again everyone,
Just wanted to let people know that if you're interested I'd be happy to recolour old photographs to bring a bit more life into them. They always seem a bit more real with colour. Here's one I did of my great grandfather.
-
This Guiseppe Tuzi as he was born which became Tuzio then eventually Tuzzio. He came to Birmingham in 1895, was born in 1872 and died in 1943 at 47 Hertford St,Balsall Heath.
Your great grandfather Vengenzino ( Vincent though I think he was known as Sonny) was born in 1902, they messed up his surname :
Births Sep 1902 (>99%)
Zuzio Vengezino Birmingham 6d 61 and he died in 1943 same year as he father.
He was baptised at St Michaels Catholic Church.
Baptism name of Joannes(John) added, Godparents, Lillian Farrell and Guiseppe Tourni?
His mother was Isabella Kate Farrell and she was born 1880 and died in 1956. They were married in 1899 at St Michaels and had 16 living children though about 3 died as children.
That's a nice photo of your great grandfather.
There is no connection to the Liverpool Tuzzio that I know.
-
This is Guiseppe seated with an unknown friend.
-
Hi,
Thanks for sharing the photos, they're great! and for the info, do you happen to have any photos of Vincent?
Thanks
-
No I don't sorry. Do you know what Vincent died of? He died young. I never knew any of this side of the family.
-
I'm not sure, but I should be able to find out from other relatives.
Is the Tuzi, Tuzio, Tuzzio just a spelling mistake or do you think there was a reason for this change?
I've recently started on Ancestry, amazing to find how many people are related, and they're still in Birmingham!
-
The original name in Italy was Tuzi, then became Tuzio/Tuzzio. Who knows, many names got changed or misspelt...... any Tuzzio in Birmingham are all from the same family, most of the Italians that came here were from the same area Frosinone. There is a very interesting book called Bella Brum all abt the Italians.
-
Yeah I had read that Amadio was from Sora or around that area.
I borrowed that book from the library the other day, a very interesting read about the Italian quarter.
Regarding Vincent I've been told that he has epilepsy, the same as my nan and died of a fit.
-
Ok thanks. Amadio was born abt 1827 so was middle aged when Giuseppe was born, family rumour is they walked through Europe to reach here.
-
Hello everyone,
Unfortunately I had this chat linked to my old email address & did not receive any updates so sorry for the late reply.
Tuzzio 91 that recoloured picture is amazing, is that of someone in the tuzzio family? I was contacted on facebook by a Tuzzio recently was this yourself?
I believe my grandmother Joan (maisie she was known) and your's Hazel were sisters and very close at some point owing to the fact that Joan called her daughter (my mother) Hazel Doreen (i'm assuming after your grandmother). Unfortunately Joan/maisie went off the radar around 1970, no one knows what happened to her but I am getting close, found a few name changes she did. My mother Hazel went on TV in the early 2000s appealing for information on her missing mother Joan, and was contacted by your grandmother Hazel, who kindly sent some photos for the first time, however strangely nobody in the family seemed to have much information on what happened.
In regards to Vincent Tuzzio I can help. I have the death record. He died in 2/03/1943 aged 41 of
"1. Lobar pneumonia"
"2. Cardiac failure"
His father Giuseppe died 4/02/1943 aged 71 of "cerebral thrombosis", a stroke.
How sad for the family that both father & son were lost within a month of each other.
A lot of this info on Giuseppe I have gathered kindly from sheronb and a lady down as Maureen Bradford on ancestry over past few years.
Found a bit of confusion for Vincent's birth as it does say 1902 in several places and that would fit with the age on the death cert but on the 1939 register he has written his DOB as 29/05/1904.
sheronb they walked?! well I cannot find them on a boat anywhere round 1895. Contacted midlands police for alien reg card but unfortunately they don't have them anymore but they do have something on microfilm I'm ordering but not sure what. I'll be sure to share.
Regards,
Sophie

Hello Sophie.
Was you in contact with Dave Cross from the Police Museum? Don't know why they have lost them.
That was kind of Maureen Bradford to share her info with you, Maureen got all her info from me but was less willing to share hers with me. (which was very little and just related to info from Birmingham)......but you live and learn as they say. So I guess you know as much as me.
It would be interesting to see what the museum have though.
-
Hello,
sheronB I did ask for him but the person who got back to me was called Bernard May who said
"The individual ‘Aliens registration cards’ have been destroyed, but we do hold a copy of the ‘Aliens Register’, which was saved to microfiche some years ago and subsequently digitised.
I have been able to locate entries relating to Guissepe and his wife Kathleen, who although was probably British born would have been required to register because she was considered Italian by marriage. There is no trace of Guissepe’s father in the register. Registration was not required until the First World War was looming. It is possible that his father had died by then or there may have been an upper age on those required to register".
I see that's a shame. Have you been the source of the amazing photos of Giuseppe then?
Would you like me to send you a scan of Vincent's death certificate? I'm not sure if he is a particularly close relative to yourself ? Also I saw Amadio lived until he was 91 back in 1913 that surely was unheard of...
-
Hi Sophie
I have the alien reg somewhere it's just a piece of paper and says the families names, children as well, when Giuseppe came here which was useful, 1895 though that's just Birmingham. They had to inform the authorities when they left Birmingham, he had cousins in Banbury so visited them and the cousin came here.
Amadio did die in 1913 and was born 1827, not unheard of.... seems there was a previous son also called Giuseppe who died when young, which is why he was such an older father.
Vincent was my grandmothers brother. It's ok I don't need the death cert but thanks.
Kathleen Farrell was born in birmingham to Irish parents, I'm not entirely sure where they came from though it could be County Clare. Kathleen had a sister who married an Italian too, Onorio Angelo they went to live in Kidderminster and had 3 sons, none of whom had children so that line died out.
I am the source of all the info, it was me got the info from Italy, everything I worked very hard to find it. It was great to find it though.

Good afternoon all
Giuseppe was my Great, Great, Great Grandfather. His daughter Lavinia married my Great Grandfather Arthur Smith, mostly known as Laddie

Hi All,
My family and I have always wondered where our Tuzi family were from and why they left to come to the UK.
We have recently been to Italy to explore this more. However most our interactions have lead our attention back to the UK.
It has been awhile since anyone checked this message board, so I was wondering firstly if anyone checked it anymore? Please message me if you do? My Great Grandmother arrived in the UK in the year 1900 at the age of 10. We believed she was in the Coventry area before ending up in Chester. Her name was Cesida Tuzi born in 1890 she married my great grandfather Cesidio Franchitti.
Please let me know if you have more information regarding my great grand parents.
Thank you for reading.
Andy
