It doesn't sound like we are likely to be related since our entire family is from Casalinguida, but it is still fun to hear from people. Our search has come to something of a standstill in the US - my cousin and I are convinced that we will have to go there to get any further info. on Raffaele Sabatini (our great-grandfather) and his wife, Filomena Colontoni Sabatini. Apparently both of those names are very common in the Abruzzi region, so narrowing down who might be related is a little tricky. : Hello my name is Frank Colontonio from New York. : My father, Aleridadio(spelling?), known as Charlie in the US was one of 11 brothers and sisters. They originally lived in Worcester Mass and most go by the name Contonio. They are currently in Cape Cod and still in the Mass and Rhode Island area. I don't have a lot of information but some of his brothers and sisters names are Tony, Guerino(known as Chili in US), Thomas, Joseph, Louise, Yolanda, Mary, Jimmy, Armondo. I am told the correct spelling is Colantonio and that the family is originally from ARCI Italy where there is a large group of the family. Colantonios are musicians in that location. My grandparents name are in a family bible somewhere in storage and when I find it I will pass that on.
