Looking for Robert Costello

I am searching for a Robert Costello who was posted to Fort Bragg, NC between 1968-1969. Robert's father was also posted to this same base during the same time. It is very important that I locate him. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

My great-grandmother was a Costella. There are some Costellas in Long Island, N.Y. The family is originally from Porcigatone in Northern Italy. Near Borgotaro and Parma.

My grandfather was half Mexican. His Americanized name was Costley. In the 1920 Census the name is "Costella" which is probably closer to the truth. He may have been from San Antonio, Bexar County, Texas.

Mother says he died when he fell while cleaning a smoke stack at a saw mill. I cannot find records of his birth, his marriage to my grandmother Bessie Mae Roberts, or records of his death.

Help me if you can.

Hi Joe
I know my grandmother was from Austria town called tyrol spoke German and Italian had two brothers,
three nehews who moved to NY then VT

I think the Moruzzi was changed, but don't ask in Austria
they are very closed mouth, try another country.
another great granfather was named Andrew
I know that one of my grandfathers has come to the USA
in the mid 1800's and returned to euorpe before the turn
of the century.

Hellooooooo Joe, I have been working on my family tree for a year and have only been searching for the name spelled " Costell'o'.
But yesterday I received a death cert and the last name was spelled with "a". So I thought I would take a chance and see if there were any posting under that spelling. And came across your posting. I know my great grandfather went from Italy to Ireland for some unknown reason and met my great grandmother and were married there and then they came to the USA. His name was William Michael Costello and married Elizabeth Shea. They wound up in Cincinnati, Ohio. Could there be any type of connection ?? Let me know.
Thanks and godspeed,
Juls

Any info about the Costella family from Porcigatone, Italy would be appreciated. The oldest relative I know was Donino Costella married to Maria Moruzzi, they were my great grandparents. The village is near the town of Borgo Val di Taro.
