I was browsing through the site for Casalbordino, my paese of birth and was surprised to hear of another Piscicelli from Sydney that I do not know. My father is also Vittorio Piscicelli but he did not serve in WW2 becassue he was a little younger. I realise, after thinking a bit that our fathers are second or third cousins. Your dad is Matteo's and Amelia's brother. From my knowledge of the Piscicelli family, family feuds have been frequent and long-standing. Thus, the distancing between brothers, sisters, cousins etc. A great shame don't you think? If you get back to me we may reopen the lines of communication despite the older generation's stubborness. I am doing some post-graduate research for a Masters degree in history at Macquarie. My topic is Abruzzese customs vis a vis marriage. Email me directly on the above adress. Ciao for now, Adriana. : : I am Interested in finding some information on my father (Vittorio Piscicelli rom Casalbordino) who served in WWII using this place called the Foglio Matricolare. : : How is it done, Like to get some documentation on his service. : : Thanks : : Carlo : : Sydney, Australia : The Foglio Matricolare can be obtained from the Archivio di Stato in Chieti, with the exact date of birth. You can contact our genealogy section at abruzzo2000 if you want them to take it for you, or you can write the archivio di stato sending money for the document (1000 Lire, it may be more than one page) and for the shipment to you.
