Do you have any other names? Did she come to the US and if so where? Lauri is a name found all over the world, it is quite common in Finland.

1902-Massimo Lauri 37- from PC - married - laborer - went to Sorrentino relatives living at 385 Metropolitan Ave.,Bklyn.
This is from immigration records, this is the same address I have for my Lauri family in Brooklyn. WOW! Remember these were tenaments, so there were about 6 families living there. Sorrentino could have been a relative by marriage.

Do you have a Marie Olimpia Lauri from PC? This is my cousin's great grandmother, her marriage name is Nunziata. Can you send me more info on your line, there may be a tie somewhere. My cousin and I are related through different Lauri lines. I have Lauri's in my family who married other Lauri's. Lots of that stuff back then.

We have the Lauri name from my Grandpa and I can trace back to late 1700's in PC as well. I don't see any one with the first names you mentioned. My great-grandfather,Massimino Lauri, came from PC in the early 1900s. I wonder where the relation is!

I have not been on Ancestry in a while. I have Lauri's from Palma Campania, Italy in my family line on my Dad's side. I have been to PC and have alot of info on my family.
Maybe I can be of some assistance. Do you have an Arnoldo Lauri in your line, or Onofrio?

Re: Lauri surname genealogy from recent trip to Sicily

Yes, please let's do keep up. Have you had correspondence with Clifford Lauri in the UK - also a Sicily/Malta connection? You may wish to join Facebook. There are 3 Lauri genealogy groups on it. Not much of an exchange of information, but one never knows what will appear. My email is cathylauri@msn.com. I am attaching a genealogy letter I recently sent out looking for Lauri's. It tells what I know, perhaps it will ring a bell. Salvatore is one of my missing links. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Regards, Cathy

Re: Lauri surname genealogy from recent trip to Sicily

Hi, we are here in Cheshire England, I am researching our family name Lauri and came across your records. My family routes are from Malta with origins from Sicily. My only living relative is in Valletta (uncle John) his brother Salvatore my Grandfather came to UK in 1930's as a Naval taylor and married my English Grandmother Elizabeth, they had two children my father Joseph (passed away in 1977) and my Aunty Rosemary. I have a brother Christopher he has two sons (living in Devon UK) and a sister Beverely. I have three sons Daniel, Matthew and Luke. I have been looking for relatives as our surname is very rare. may be we could keep in touch?

Re: Lauri name

PatriciaLauri — 2009-08-27 02:00:58Z

Hi Stephen,

My grandfather, Michael Lauri was born in a small town near Naples in the 1890's. His family immigrated to the New York City around 1904. He married Carmela Juliano and had 3 children, Aniel, Guiseppe (Joe)and Philomena. I am Joe's daughter and live in NY. Do you have a lot of relatives named Michael, Joseph or Neil? I do.

My Dad is over 6 feet tall had black hair and blue eyes. I'm thinking that the Vikings had a stop over in Naples. I also learned that Lauri is a surname in Finland.

In any event, we were lucky to be born "Lauri's"

Regards,
Patricia Lauri Hogan

If anyone has any info please contact me. Thanks

Lauri surname genealogy from recent trip to Sicily

ickyandweinwein — 2009-02-10 20:05:44Z

My husband and I just returned from Sicily - needless to say, it was an experience of a lifetime.

After 7 years of research, with the assistance of Emilio Terrazzino (our wonderful guide, researcher, translator and new friend born in Ohio and now living in Agrigento), I located a branch of my Lauri family in Palermo. I am still bouncing off the walls!!!! We got together 3 times during our trip. Prior to leaving, I also, after years of research by chance located other Lauri's I knew of in Connecticut but had not been able to find. They are also bouncing off the walls!!

Here is the genealogical information I gathered to share:

1. Lauri surname - I await certificates of birth via Emilio for my grandfather and his brothers from Partanna. After a few words from Emilio with some gentlemen at the cemetery in Partanna, we were permitted to visit. We searched the cemetery, finding no Lauri's. I saw Vivianos buried there and since my Aunt married an Ippolito, took a picture of an Ippolito grave stone with pictures of 3 generations. I was not aware of this but when one is buried, the plot is leased for 100 years. After 100 years, if there is on one to pay the rent for the next 100 years, the remains and marker are turned over to the church for mass burial.

There were no Lauri's in the municipal records in Palermo, Alcamo or Terrasini for a span of time beginning in 1875 through 1925.

When meeting with the family, we talked about Lauri's around the world. They confirmed we are related to the Lauri's in Palma Campagnia, Naples, but do not know how. Another lead for me to track down!

Re: Lauri name

slauri58 — 2009-01-25 19:17:49Z

Hi I live in Cheshire England, our family here in the UK is made up of myself Stephen Lauri, my brother Christopher and our children and wives. We are a small family here with origins from Malta. Please keep in touch.

This is the same story that I heard about my family. Coincidence, I don't think so.

Looking for connection between Lauri's in Scandinavia and Southern Europe

2006-10-24 01:51:04Z

My family comes from Sicily and as the story goes, migrated from southern France. I have made contact with another Lauri with family from mainland Italy. She has has also heard the French connection. Does anyone have an idea how the Lauri's in the north and south are connected. I have a hypothesis. Hundreds of years ago, we were all Gauls and various members of the family moved south or north. Gaul may be the connection, today's France was part of Gaul. Any input will be appreciated, thanks

Re: Lauri name

AliciaKMarshall — 2006-09-21 23:55:31Z

If you knew the history of Finland, they were classified
as born in Russia for a certain time when Russia
won the war. Also in the World war one draft records
the Finns were classified as "Mongolian". It was not true but reflects on how the Finnish people were treated in America.

Re: Lauri Estonia.

2006-09-21 21:49:32Z

well one of the things to note on our family crest is that at one point we were tailors and had some sort of contact with royalty. it's believed that we might have been tailors to the Czar of Russia.

Re: Lauri name

2006-09-21 21:33:45Z

my great great grandfather lived in Wisconsin in Bayfield. and yes his origin is finnish but before we lived in Finnland we lived in Russia. and before that it was mongolia. I have come to believe that our last name might have been spelled laurinah but this is not confirmed yet..

Re: Lauri Surname

LeahS30 — 2006-09-01 01:46:00Z

I believe that they came from Campania. but like I said I don't have very much information. And no I have not heard that story before. Do you think that our families could be related? I know that we have family in Italy some where, We have pictures of my moms aunt in Italy with some relatives but we don't know who they are and her memory is not that great and she don't remember who they are.

Re: Lauri Surname

2006-08-31 16:07:58Z

Ehi John,
I'm Claudio Lauri. Where did your grandfather come from? I ask you that because Cassese and Nunziata are surnames that I know very well. They are from that italian Region called Campania. My gandmother is a Nunziata. and in the town where my parents still live there are some Cassese Families.
They are all in Palma Campania (Naples, Italy). But the main branch of the family - at least in Italy - is in Spoleto. Did you heard the story of Fiordespina Lauri ('500)?

Re: Lauri name

charmcclary — 2006-08-18 18:17:36Z

Re: Lauri Surname

Leah_Schlief — 2003-06-09 16:31:01Z

John
I don't know if this is the same family but my great grandma's name was angelina(julia) Lauri and she married biagio cassesse. I'm not sure if the spelling of the last name is right that's why I'm not sure if it's the same family or not. I have a marrage certificate that says Laura and a picture of a grave stone. Her brother Nicola is buried next to her but there is flowers covering the last letter so I cannot tell if it Lauri or Laura. I think we have another document some where with the Lauri that's why I'm so confused. We have little information as my great grandfather died young and the kids were all young and the only one left was about a year old when he died. Do you know anything? Can you shed some light on this for me? Also the name nunziata come up, we think that they may have been cousins because the marrage certificate lists both of my great grand parents parents as having the name nunziata. thanks Leah
