I would love to hear from anyone with insight or knowledge about my Mom's family. Here's some info that I recently received Our
Great, great grandfathers name was Antonio Di Diego. Our great
grandfathers name was Nicolo Andrea Di Diego and his wife was Maria Donata De Angelis.
> Nicolo was born in 1855 in Lanciano, Abruzzo. He died May 22nd 1918 in
NY. He arrived in 1898. Our grandfather was born on Feb 28th 1889.He arrived
in NY by 1909. He died 8/17/68. They were from the Chieti area in Abruzzo.
> That is on the Di Diego side. On Grandma's side, our maternal
> greatgrandparents are Michele Ruzzi and Anastasia De Julio. They were
also from Abruzzo, but from the San Salvo and Campobassa sections. Grandma was
> born 8/20/1893. She arrived in NY in approx 1900. Died March 14,1995.
So far as we know the Di Diego name originated in Barcelona Spain and we
don't know exactly when.

Any ifoo would be greatly appreciated!
