Liborio Fusco, my paternal great-grandfather was believed to be part of a family of 7 from Scanno who lost touch with each other. He was born in 1850 arrived in the US in 1895 with his 2 sons Gregorio (my grandfather) and William and settled in Endicott NY and died in 1901. His wife, Maria Buttino from Compobasso, was the daughter of Michael and Rose Buttino. Maria was born in 1878, and came to the US with her parents the first time in 1886 as an 8 year old. When her father died tragically, Maria and her mother and sisters returned to Italy. Her 2nd move to America was with her husband. My maternal grandfather, Raphael Olivieri came to the US with his mother Nicholangela and his wife Maria Theresa Dellapenta who were al from Compobasso. There maybe relatives in Ontario Canada. The Olivieri's lived first in Connecticut before settling in Endicott NY. Would appreciate info. Email rocolaizzi- AT - aol.com As regards the Fusco family in Scanno, some may have well stayed in the place. On the Italian white pages, you can find the addresses of 18 families in Scanno. http://www.paginebianche.it/pbol/ We suggest a nice letter in Italian sent to each of them and also (but no reply may be guaranteed) to the municipality and church. If you need help in translating, you can contact our genealogy service at the email info- AT - abruzzo2000.com We can also include our phone number in L'Aquila as a reference for those who want to get in touch in that way. This method is recently working wonderously. Follow Ups:
