Called mom and she said this is correct.He was married twice first time to a Mary,and Irish woman and she died and he went back to Italy from West Virginia,and married my grand-mother Amelia,a beautiful little Italian woman.How I miss her smile and kisses. Gosh I fogot how many kids he had when you start throwing in the ones from first marriage.You made my mom`s day and she kept asking more about her mom and I don`t think she understands how hard it is for me not knowing the knowledge of how to find genealogy.You guys are a blessing.
