Hi there - Am also interested in many of these names. My name is Virginia Sandroni Daugherity, but my mother is Virginia DeFazio Sandroni. 16 years ago we visited San Pietro Apostolo with my grandfather Peter George DeFazio from New Jersey - his father and mother came here from San Pietro Apostolo. Peter's parents were Rafael DeFazio and Frances Grandinetti. I was told Frances Grandinetti's family came to the United States prior to the Civil War, but she was sent back to Italy to be raised until she was "older" after her mother's death.
If this is something you are interested in pursuing, please contact me and my mother:
