| Emigration and immigration sources list the names of people leaving (emigration) or coming into (immigration) Argentina. These lists are usually found as passenger lists, permissions to emigrate, records of passports issued, or lists of prisoners deported. The information in these records may include the emigrants’ name, ages, occupations, destinations, and sometimes place of origin or birthplace. | | ==Finding the Town of Origin in Italy== |

| These sources can be very valuable in helping you determine where in Argentina your ancestor settled or from what city he or she immigration from. In addition to their usefulness in determining where an emigrant lived in the country before leaving, these records can help in constructing family groups. If you don't find your ancestor, you may find emigration information on neighbors of your ancestor. People who lived near each other in Argentina or other countries often settled together in the country they emigrated to.

| |

| Once you have traced your family back to your immigrant ancestor, you must determine the city or town the ancestor was from. There are several sources that may give your ancestor's place of origin. You may be able to learn the town your ancestor came from by talking to older family members. Members of your family or a library may have documents that name the city or town, such as:
| |
| | |
| *Birth, marriage, and death certificates.
| |
| *Obituaries.
| |
| *Journals.
| |
| *Photographs.
| |
| *Letters.
| |
| *Family Bible.
| |
| *Church certificates/records.
| |
| *Naturalization applications and petitions.
| |
| *Passenger lists.
| |
| *Passports.
| |
| *Family heirlooms.
| |
| | |
| Sometimes it is possible to guess where an immigrant originated through [[Surname Distribution Maps|surname distribution maps]].
