The first member of the Filardi Family mentioned by Dra. Estela Cifre de Loubriel was Vicente Filardi Poggi, born in Lauri Superior, Italy, general contractor, married with Maria Cantisani Lagrotti, and settled in Yauco, Puerto Rico. A descendant of this family was a noted cartoonist, Carmelo Filardi (Yauco 1900-San Juan 1975.

I searching for information about a family member - a great grandfather.According to what I've been told, he lived and died in the Yauco area.

My name is Michael Filardi. My grandfather is Antonio Filardi-Cantissani; He was one of Carmelo Filardi's brothers. I am currently looking for any information about their sisters Dolores and Josefa Filardi. They may also be refered to as "las nenas" or by their nicknames of "loleand Pepa". I have some family information about both Carmelo and Antonio, my father Raul is one of Carmelo's nephews. I also know that we are related to Pierre Filardi in Austin,TX and his father who are both Doctors; I think they are related to one of the other brothers in the family, possibly Vincente.

Please write back with any information about the family!
Thank you and good luck!
Michael Filardi
