Re: Calesa family

Classification: Query
Surnames: Calesa, Guaraldi, Quinzani
Ermengilda, "Gilda" (Calesa) Guaraldi was my Nana, and lived with us until her death in 1972. She had five children:

George, Leonard, Edmund, Rita and my adoptive mother, Ermengilda "Gilda" Hope Quinzani (nee Guaraldi.)

The entire family of siblings except for my aunt Rita (married H. Paccone, Dobbs Ferry, NY) lived on Parkhurst Rd in Chelmsford, MA for many, many years. We moved to Pembroke, NH in the latter 1960's.

All of them are now deceased, including George's wife, my aunt Mary (Mary J. Guaraldi). I have lost touch with the cousins, but there are many, and the Mary J. Guaraldi that has passed also has a daughter named Mary Guaraldi who lives in AZ and works in theatre arts. Mary J. Guaraldi's maiden name was Quinzani; she was the sister of Alfred A. Quinzani, who married my adopted mother, Ermengilda "Gilda" Hope Quinzani (nee Guaraldi.) My adopted mother was George's sister.

Both my Nana and adopted mother would have died if someone had called them 'Ermengilda.' :)

I would love to know more about the Calesa side!

Hope that's of some help.
