  1. Hello, thank you for letting me inquire about my family! My Grandmother was Louise Varra, She joined Palscal Varra in Colorado ? my Grandfather, James Bonelli (or could be Bonelli). They worked in the coal mines in Superior, Colorado. James and Louisa had three sons and they lost two of them. Is there anyone that might like to write to me and tell me what life was like that caused them to leave beautiful Italy? I would so appreciate it. I am their granddaughter, Louise. Age 86 but in good health. There was just a terrible fire in this little town of Superior and my home, and everything in it burned. Thank you so much!

  2. Cerco copia dell’atto di nascita di mio padre, Nato a Roccamandolfi il 5 gennaio 1909 da Luigi e Angelina DiGiovanni. Si chiamava Felice V. Digiovanni. Il fratello di Luigi era un medico che si stabilì e praticò a Roccamandolfi. Un altro fratello era un avvocato che si stabilì e praticò a Ferrara. Il patriarca della famiglia di Luigi era un gioielliere. Luigi e Angelina e tre figli emigrarono negli Stati Uniti nel 1913, partendo da Napoli. Si stabilirono nel Bronx, New York. Angelina è morta nel 1949 e Luigi è morto nel 1953. Felice, mio ​​padre è morto in Florida il 2 gennaio 1991.
