It wasn't until my father passed away that I realized how important it was for me to locate as many distant members of our family as possible (which even includes relative in Italy). My father's brother and sisters have all passed on, leaving me virtually at square one. The message from Paula Piacente Rediker, who is my niece, is also interested in putting this together, therefore, if anyone has any information as to my father's family in Italy or the USA please help us.
I live in Yonkers, New York where my father's family settled when they immigrated from Italy in 1927 (to 1930). In the Park Hill area, living on Oak Street for many years. My father was born in the Abruzzi area of Italy, exactly where I do not know. He had 3 sisters and 1 brother all born in Italy. One sister and his brother were fraternal twins. My grandfather worked in City Hall shoveling coal into the furnace.

Anxiously awaiting your e-mail.

Dear Patricia, need more info. . .

. . . I lived on Oak St. in the 50's. Moved to Ash St. in the 60's. Am still in Yonkers, but without any names, I'm afraid I can't help.

My maiden name is Patricia Piacente. My family lived in the Bronx throughout the 70's. My grandfather was from Italy and his name is Micheal Piacente. I don't know whether we're related or not. I do not know whether he is alive either.

I don't really have any other information. I've since discovered that my grandfather has passed as well as my grandmother and cousin. I do not know their lineage. I don't know where they were from.

Thanks,
Patty

Well, I looked through these message boards and found out the names of my great-grandparents on my father's side. My grandfather was Donato Piacente who arrived to New York in 1904 from Campobasso, Italy(www.ellisisland.org) and his wife Maria Biela from Benevento, Italy (found from the same mesage board). I don't know if our Piacente families are connected but at least I have a little more.

Thank you for your interest and if you know or can help me in any way please feel free.
