Hi Lori,
I am originally from Philadephia, Pa, and my father was born in Italy. He had a brother Ugo and a sister Ida. His mother's maiden name was Rubena Di Luigi. I was born in 1945. And now live in New Jersey.

Rita...possibly you and my father are cousins (probably second) My dad was born in 45 also and his father (Arnold) had several brothers and sisters. Would be interesting to find out...

Lori, where are you from? My father's name was Mario, is brother's name was Ugo and his sister's name was Ida. My father's dads name was Gaetano and his mother's name was Rubena DiLuigi. Do you know were your fathers family lived in Italy?
I received a e-mail from a Thomas Ciafardoni, who lives in Connecticut. He was originally from New York City, and is father was from the Bronx. His father had 10 brothers and sister, but the only one he know was a Henry. His mother's maiden name was Lattanzi. Tom, aslo told me that he exchanged e-mail with a Stefano Ciafardoni, from Rome, Italy and he send him some information.
He said the name Ciafardoni is an anagram for "o.di francia" (o.stands for oriundo) which means migrated from France. The settled in Giulianova around 1492, and he has a letter from 1720 with the name Luca Ciafardoni.
Actually in Giulianova, there is a street named, ViaFrancesco Ciafardoni and there is monument to a Ciafardoni on the lido near the beach. I have a friend who is in Italy visiting family, and she wrote to tell me that the information I received from Tom is true.
Will write back soon.
