I'm not sure how i even got to this web page. My name is Marie Vecchione, born and raised in Philadelphia Pa. My fathers name was Joseph Vecchione. I don't know his middle name. My mothers name was Shirley. They married at 16 pregnant with my bother Joseph Verne Vecchione and divorced shortly after my sister was born Theresa Vecchione. I don't remember much about my dad's family. I was told my grandparents came over on the boat, don't know what boat. I don't even know their first names. I do remember it being a large family and some of the brothers names i remember are Frank,Carmen,Paul. They opened a bakery on Toursdale Ave.in Philadelphia. I was 3 yrs. old when they divorced, but some of my fondest memories are eating dinner with alot of people,food and laughter. They all spoke Italian and how I always wished I was brought up in that culture. I don't know if this is in relations to your story, but the name Frank although common may be a link to our families.
