Re: Maria's sugestion for Argentine names


 
Hi Jose Luis,

I found a link to the Italian white pages:  
http://www.paginebianche.it/index.html
For Germany:
http://www.teleauskunft.de/

I did a Google search using their language tools and then selected 
the language and country.  That is how I found the above links. I 
was thinking it might be easier to go to an Argentine Genealogy 
group (like our Ranchos group) and asking them about the surnames.  
That might make it easier to decipher those names.

I sure do appreciate the work that you are doing. The IGI is a great 
resource to us all.

Maria
