Archia? Arcia? Archie? Italy
 

Calling all Neapolitans out there -- I am assisting a friend whose grandfather comes from this town (Archia? Arcia?) near Napoli. I have done several searches but can't seem to find the town. Does anyone know where this place would be and what is the correct name/spelling? We would like to go visit in the spring but heard that it is a very small, remote town. Any help would be appreciated - grazie mille!

Huitres - Could it be Acerra?

Or Arce, between Rome and Naples? It's quite a bit further from Naples than Acerra, but the name sounds closer to your guesses....

Hum... I am confused, it could be ANY of the following places.... maybe???
ACERNO (province of Salerno)
AVERSA
ARCELLA (province of Avellino)
ARCARA (province of Salerno)

The place near where I live is called ARICCIA.... it is in Lazio region, not in Campania though..... and it is about 200 kilometres from Neaples.... not wuite near...

Thanks all for your help -- KT you were right, it is Arce. My friend's spelling was WAY off. At least now we know to start planning our spring trip. Grazie!
