: I am looking for any information on the Ortenzi family from Montorio Al Vomano. My grandfather's name was Pangrazio and he left there in 1911. Hoping someone is still able to help me find out about him. Also looking for information on Sophia Algeni. She left Italy in 1913. Her immigration records are unclear but the town looks like Celano. Someone please help me...it would be so appreciated.

Hi! This is probably to late to help you in your search. But, I do know that my Great grandparents were from that area. I only know my G grandmother's full name. Santa Maria (?) Rossi. She was from Teramo. My Great grandfather was from Ascoli di Piceno and of course his last name was Ortenzi. I'm guessing they immigrated in the mid-to early 30's. Hope that helps in some way! By the way, I just found out what Ortenzi means in italian, hydrangea. Good luck!
