I'm in touch with relatives descended from three siblings of the Loiacono family who settled on the west coast. Their parents were Antonio Loiacono and Clotilde Campea. Three of their six children are:
Marietta/Maria Loiacono b. 1886 in Fosse, L'Aquila m. Nicola Santucci, arrived US 1905 and moved to Seattle, WA by 1910 Census
Giovanni Loiacono b. 1893 in Villetta, L'Aquila m. twice, changed name to John Loyacon, arrived US 1909 and moved to Seattle, WA by 1910 Census. Living in Sacramento CA by 1920 census.
[H]Ugo Loiacono, b. 1897 in Villetta, L'Aquila m. Anna, changed name to Hugo Loyacon, arrived in US 1911 and moved to Seattle, WA.
If anyone has pictures or info to share, it would be greatly appreciated.
