Rachel,

I have a distant branch of DiBella's/Di Bellas in my family tree. My family originally came from Tusa, province of Messina, Sicily, which is close to Cefalu and Castelbuono.

My 5th great grandfather was Nicolo/Nicola Di Bella, married to Anna La Lima. Their daughter, Grazia di Bella, would have been my 4th great-grandmother, and she married Vincenzo Di Gangi.

I realize that this does not provide much information. If anyone is a descendant of this family, I would love to hear from you. My father's parents emigrated in 1901 and 1902 and settled in Westerly, RI, and then in New London, CT. Their surnames were Di Gangi and Di Maggio.

im sorry to bother you,but my grandpa's name was Joseph Dibella. his parents moved from sicily, italy to North America around the same time your ancestors moved. i dont know much about the dibella history either. i actually came across your post when i was looking for my grandpas obituary. i still havent found it though. but my grandpas grandparents settled in ohio, they ran a farm. then my grandpas parents ran a glass factory around Catlettsburg, kentucky. His sister and brother are still alive, but i could find out what my grandpas grandparents names were, to see if there are any ties to our families?
