: : : : Interested in learning more about my family's genealogy so I can pass it on to my three little girls. My father is Pasquale Ricciuti, my grandfather was named Domenico Antonio (married Assunta Spadaccini from Roccamontepiano I believe) and emigrated to Canada in the early 1960's with his family.
: : : : My grandfather was born around 1915. His father's name was Paolo (aka Paolin) (married to a lady named Santa aka Santarella), and his father's name(my great great grandfather) was Luigi Ricciuti.
: : : : My father was raised in Pagnotta a small village near Pretoro, but I believe the Ricciuti family came from Campobasso.
: : : : Anyone with family ties?
: : : : Ciao Antonella : : : Antonella,
: : : I recently began researching my paternal genealogy. My grandfather was Nicola Sorgente, born 1890 in Pietracatella, Campobasso. My grandmother was Esther Ricciuti, born about the same time in either Campobasso or Crecchio, Chiete. You are the first I have come across bearing the name, however, I am pretty determined, as you are I'm sure. Unfortunately, I have no other information on my grandmother's family, only her name and approximate birthplace. If you can provide any other leads, I would be very grateful. : : : Ciao
: : : Steve : : Hi Steve
: : Good to hear from you.
: : Do you know what your grandmother Esther's name is in Italian? How old was she when she passed away?
: : My grandfather(Domenico Antonio) was born in 1910(he passed away in 1996) and his father, my great-grandfather (Paolo) was born in 1872.
: : Paolo Ricciuti married a Maria Santa Di Fulvio.
: : My great-great-grandfather was named Luigi Ricciuti and I am almost sure, he was born around 1845.
: : Now I have been told by cousins that Paolo had 2 sisters named Anna and Filomena but I am not sure if there were any brothers.
: : I still have a great-uncle(Nicola) and a great-aunt(Adelina) still residing in Pretoro Province Chieti.
: : I will ask my aunts about Esther, they will be travelling to Italy this summer and I hope they can come back with some information.
: : I have come across some Ricciuti's in my search but not as many as I had hoped for, at least not yet.
: : Bye for now
: : Antonella : Antonella, : Thank you for your speedy response and all of the information you provided. I will try to find out Esther's name in Italian. I know she had at least one sister, but not sure of her name or if there were other siblings. Esther was born in 1899 and died in 1963. I wish I knew a little more about her, but this is what I've got...Thanks for your help and please do keep in touch. Antonella,
I'm wondering where your great Uncle Nicola fits in. Is he Domenico's brother? or cousin? Is he a Ricciuti?
Steve
