Hi everyone,

My name is Ariana Mucci. My father was Andrea Mark Mucci, and my grandfather was William A. Mucci, brother to Col. Henry Mucci. They were all born in Bridgeport, and I know my grandfather grew up in Bridgeport. I don't remember my great-grandfather's name (I think it was Andrea), he was married to Elizabeth LaMaita, and he sold horses for a living. I know my grandfather had a LOT of siblings (at least 8 or 9) and I see a few people listing some of the same information on here. I know I have some relatives in Shelton with whom my grandfather lost contact, and they own and run Mucci Construction (I see their trucks driving around every now and then, and the driver usually bears a striking resemblance to my father). If there is anyone in Connecticut, or who is related to this branch, or any branch of the Mucci family that would like to contact me, please feel free. I'm an only child and it's not easy keeping in track with family, especially after my father passed away this past August.

Hello, my name is Joseph Alfieris. I was a friend of your father at the University of Bridgeport, Ct., which I attended in the Summer and early Fall of 1974. It was the last time I saw him as I transferred out to another art school in NYC. I was just thinking of old acquaintances and I did some research on Andrea. I was sorry to hear of his death. He was a smart, witty guy and we had some good times. He appeared exactly as in one of the photos in your video tribute - He had shoulder length dark hair and he was slim. Again, sorry to hear of your loss. Best, Joseph Alfieris

Thank you for taking the time to respond to my posting, I really appreciate it! I don't know much about my dad's life when he was my age, so talking to people who knew him is definitely priceless. Thank you for the condolences as well, it's been rough, especially since the one year anniversary of his death just passed.

Ariana,
Go to Mucci-LaMaita Family tree on Ancestry, a lot of info is there. Your Dad and I were first cousins. When you were a little girl I met you at the party for your grandparents in Watkins Glen. I was there with my mother Marge and my daughter Katie. Look me up in facebook also as beth allen leney. I do not think we are related to Mucci construction but I may be wrong, if we are it is not a direct line.
Your g-grandfather Andrea had at least 2 brothers who also had a ton of kids.
Look forward to hearing from you
Beth

Hello,
Many years ago my family and myself visited cousins of my father's mother who lived in Ct. I can't remember where. We then lived in Rye NY then moving there from White Plains NY. My grandmother was Filomena Mucci born 3/13/1897 in Nocciano. She married Giovanni(John)Laureti. My father was Vincent. I know so little about her and her family. I can be reached at annette.wakefield@gmail.com

My name is Domenick Mucci III, and I am from Tenessee born there for two years and moved to Florida for most of my life. My father is from Garfield New Jersey. His grandmother was from Napoli and his mother spoke full Italian. However I never met his part of the family do to him leaving at a young age. However I will have to get some names of realtives and see if any are still alive in that area. He mentioned some are still in Napoli. One day I plan to go let me know what you know about this area and any relation. I wish you the best in your journey through life God bless in Jesus Cristo nombre amen.

Hi,
It sounds like we are cousins. All of your info is the same re: names of grandparents
etc. My father was Joe Muccio, and we lived in the Bronx. I had never heard that Giovanni
Mucci was a shepherd in Buso Campobasso. Who is your parent that is related to the Muccios?
I know that the 2 brothers lost contact.. I have been in touch with the granddaughter of Frank
Muccio.
I grew up in the area where our grandparents lived.
Hope to hear from you!
Alice
