I was in Sant'Elia for two weeks last year and one week this spring. My plans are to return in October. If there are any specifics you would like me to inquire about . . family member's names, etc. I would be happy to do so. I have several dear friends that I will be visiting and they know virtually everyone in this small town.

Also the state archives in Campobasso has a great staff. We found them to be very kind and helpful.

My husband's grandfather was from somewhere near Campobasso but for many reasons we have not been successful in our search for information or family members. (His name changed in immigration, he knew he would not return and it was too painful to speak of Italy, he did not read or write, etc.)

Good luck in your search!!
