My Father-Law was born in Marzi (Calabria) in 1901. He came to the USA around 1920 or a litle later. He lived in Brooklyn. He had two brothers. Mark and Louis. He moved to Philadelphia where he resided until his death at 87. He married the former Philomina ( Florence) Olivetti. She also was from Calabria. Her parents were Frank and Vera. My husband's name is Victor and he is one of 10 children. He has an Aunt Eleanor still living who recently moved to N.J. We jsut returned from a visit to calabria. it was beautiful The people were wonderful. I would like to hear from other Tucci Families.

We have more information about my husbands' family. His grandfather, Rosario, was a shoe maker and his Grandmothers' name was actually Terecina Vera. Rosario had 6 brothers and one sister. Terecina lived to be 91 years old. They never left Marzi and when we visited the town in September we saw their home.

Hi Carol,

Last night I saw your husband's posting about Giovanni and his family on the Italian Message Board of Ancestry.com. I don't know how often you check the messages, but I left some info about Giovanni. He was born 20 Aug 1901 in Marzi. His parents were Rosario Tucci, age 40, and Teresa Grandinetti. I've extracted a lot of the Marzi records - particulary Tucci names. I've linked some families together. There is a Tucci family here in Tacoma that originated in Marzi. Your husband said that his mother' was Filomena Oliveti born in 1909. Was she from Marzi too? I've extracted lots of names from villages in Cosenza so I can check my other databases.

I am very ecxcited that you have this information. We just visited an Aunt of Victor's. She was born in Marzi. She came to this country in 1930. Her name is Eleanora. Her maiden name was Arcuri. She married Liugi Tucci ( Giovanni brother) in 1933 in Brooklyn, NY. Her father was Antonio and her Mother was Guisopina. Victors' Mother was born in Belsito which is very close to Marzi. We visited there this summer. Her parents were
Theresa and Florella ( or Fiorella) I don't know her Mothers maiden name. She came to the USA when she was about seven.I will e-mail you directly with more information. Thank You.

Carol, I was browsing my Great Grandfathers Diary yesterday. I came across the name Filomena Olivetti. I did not translate it yet. I will try tonight. I also came across Bruno Tucci, Salvatore Tucci, Bruno's son Guiseppe (Joseph). His writing style is very difficult to translate. I will scan a sample of his diary and send it to you.
