My father was Giuseppe Petrillo, born in 1886 in Castelmauro, Molise (was part of Abruzzo, until 1963). My father came to the U.S. in 1905 and lived in Utica. He met and married my mother there in 1912 and moved to Cleveland, where I was born in 1928. Here's the connection (maybe). My father had 4 siblings. Maria Ofelia, 1881; Ida Clalia, 1884; Umberto, 1890; Teodolene Eulia 1892. It is possible that Teodelene Eulia was your grandmother and your Great Aunt Mary is Maria Ofelia. I had an Aunt Mary who lived in Utica. My wife and I lived in Italy from April 2001 to September 2002. We were in Castelmauro several times while there. We live in Portland, Oregon.
