About Our Family Research


1997, My mother was died, I decided to start working on my family tree to honor her and all in my family.
I started with what knew, which was my maternal and paternal granadpareents, my maternal great-gtandmother, where they came from-whoch was sicily, Italy. After my mother died, my family went into her hope chest. That chest was a treasure trove of information. in it was photos, my uncle's mittary uniiform, the flag that draped over his coffin, clothing-intact- a wedding gown, a baptismal gown. other famuly info. Since I was doing the tree, I took some info back with me.
In September of 1997, our family went to Vermont. It was mom's wish to have her ashes scattered in the Green Mountains, We went there in October, we could not have picked the best time. For Vermont was in the peak time with all the high fall colors.
What is left of my family is my sister, myself, dauaghter and son-in law. Everytime we see each it is a eeunion, we leave a distance of each other
