I may have some information for you...my grandmother was Carmela Sofia, wife of Pasquale Palladino and she had cousins in Westchester, possibly White Plains.
What other names of Sofia family do you have? Do you know where in Italy they came from? Let me know and I will see what I can dig up. Oh, my Sofia family comes from Laurino, Salerno,Campagnia, Italy.
