My grandpa was born in Aquara Italy, in the late 1800 or early 1900. Does anyone out there know any other pucciarelli from that town or time?

Surnames: Pucciarelli, Purcell, Boffa, Carfora
My g grandfather was Joseph John Pucciarelli born in Italy in 1856 died 1912 Jersey City, Hudson County, NJ. His wife was Coucertta Boffa. My grandfather was Joseph John Pucciarelli but he changed his last name to Purcell. He had about 15 brothers & sisters. I only have some of the names; Kate, Rose, Anna, Julia & Frank. He was married twice, the second time to my grandmother Maria Giovanna (Jean) Carfora. Any connection?
I would very much like to exchange info.
Thank you
Dana Valley

Hi Dana, I am so sorry it took so long to answer but I stopped looking on the site since I had no responses for a while. My grandfathers name was Guisepe Pucciarelli however he changed it when he came to the states. His wifes name was Mary Fiona and other then that I don't know much other then the town where my mom grew up Laguara. My moms name was Bianca and her sister was Lena. I lost my mom on 10/13/2008 and she had dementia so I could not get a lot out of her. If you have any new data it would be greatly appreciated. I plan on going to Laguara someday God willing and spread moms ashes. She loved it there and had fond memories.

Thanks for your info, we probably are related somehow.

My great-grandmother was Lucille Carfora Ilvento. Her mother was Rose Pucciarelli, John's sister. John got married twice. His first wife was Lucille (I forget maiden name) died while giving birth to twins (twins were stillborns). His second wife was Maris Carfora, my great-grandmother's cousin. Could you help me with some Pucciarelli genealogy information and I'll help you with Ilvento genealogy information.
