Hello!

I don't know if you've already gotten more information.. The town you're looking for is Sant'Eufemia a Maiella. It's near Pescara. My grandparents came from there too. The name Del Vecchio is familiar to me. Friends of my grandparents.. They settled outside of Pittsburgh i a small town called Aliquippa. I hope that helps!!!

Good luck, paisan!!

Sincerely,

Kathi Belich

SANT'EUFEMIA a MAIELLA in the PROVINCE OF PESCARA my Grandparents: FELIPPO & EUFEMIA(CARPELOTTI)came to the USA in Dec. 1901 Felippo was born April 8, 1884 his Father was Thomas Del Vecchio Eufemia was born April 8, 1885 her parents were PHILOMENIA(PALOMA) & OTTAVIA CARPELLOTTI on their Naturalization Papers it reads that they came from: SANTENFENNIA,MAIELKA,ITALY. Just can't find that on any map. But I have been told that they were from CHIETI,ITALY
