Subject:   dove terra nova?

My maternal grandparents left Abruzzi(o) in 1913 or 1914.
I believe the village they came from was called Terra Nova,
but I can't find Terra Nova on a map. Does anyone know where it is? My grandparents immigrated to Brooklyn. My grandfather returned to Italy for the First World War where he was in the Alpine regiment. He was a stonemason and my
grandmother was a postmistress in Abruzzi. They were part of a family of several brothers and sisters who emigrated to America. I'm going to Italy in 10 days and want very much to find out where the village is...can you help me?

Many thanks.
