This website contains research on my Sicilian ancestors. The pedigree includes these major surnames: ABRUZZO, ALFANO, CATANZARO, INTERRANTE, MESSINA, and SPOTO.
Many more names appear on the Search page or in the family group sheets accessible from the pedigree.
Thanks to the assistance of three cousins, these ancestors have been traced back through records to their homes in Sicily as far back as about 1715.
Through the analysis of DNA, they have also been traced to the cradle of civilization. The ABOUT tab has more details.
My research is ongoing, so data will be added and some data may change. See the bottom of the ABOUT page. It contains the Update Log.
As my research progresses, I plan on writing the stories of my ancestors. As they are completed, they will be available on Amazon. Currently, I am working on the first story: San Biagio Platani to Chicago.
In the meantime, I have the story of Jimmy Catuara to offer. Click Here
