I believe the Ventresca's migrated from Introdaqua to Torre dei Nolfi/Sulmona area. : : : : : ELena : : : : Yes, I have the maternal parents' names of Giovanni, but he's a Colangelo, and you want Ventrescas, right? Carmela Ventresca's parents are Felice Ventresca (who died before 1891) and Appollonia Susi (died between 1906-1919). I don't really know anything else about them yet, but I'm waiting to hear from the Stato Civile in Scanno about them. Carmela was born in Scanno in 1879. : : : : I looked on my atlas of Italy and couldn't find any town named Torre dei Nolfi. What province is it in? Is it near Sulmona? I found a Torre de Passeri further north. : : : : --Gina : : Gina, : : I have visited Sulmona and saw Torre de Nolfi while I was there - it is a small town not far from Sulmona. About a 5 minute car ride if I remember correctly. :) : : Hope that helps. : : -- Toni Gina, Toni is right. Torre dei Nolfi is a tiny village and about a 5 minute car ride from Sulmona. Still trying to sit down with some relatives that may help on these names. I suffer Polycystic Kidney Disease and I'm on dialysis 3xweek and not feeling great in between. I'm also trying to find if I got the PKD disease from the Lostracco side or DeSantis (my grandmother's maiden name). Follow Ups:
