I am 26ys old and am also visiting Italy in September 2001.! I am currently working in Sydney for Microsoft Corp. My dad, Ignazio Zappacosta emmigrated to Australia from Chieti in 1949 (when he was 9 yrs old) with his brothers and sisters, mum and dad. They relocated from Cheiti to Australia in search of a better life. I am one of 4 children my dad had and we are all grown up now, I am based in Sydney, one of my sisters is based in Los Angeles, my other sister is based in Griffith and my brother is also based in Griffith - all with children and husbands/wives. The Zappacosta clan is huge in Griffith and also in Chieti. You will find heaps of them in the Abbruzzi region. I don't have contact details for you to follow upon, but maybe we can talk more over email and help eachother out.. Hope this helps and hear from you soon! ciao Mark.
