CAMPA Family History
Recorded in a variety of forms which appear to include Campa, Campi, Campo, Campelli, Campanelli, Campatelli, Campese and even de Campbellis, this is an Italian surname. However spelt it is probably a derivative of the Latin word "campus" meaning field, but this would depend on which part of Italy the any particular family came from, as in some parts the name may have described a flower such as a blue bell, or even just a bell itself. Italian surnames are the most difficult of all European surnames to research with accuracy, and even the Dictionary of Italian Surnames prefaces its remarks with "This is an extraordinarily difficult subject".
