Hi Joe,
I was interested to read your posting about visiting Tusa, Sicily. I have done some preliminary searching, but could not make any progress in finding out what town my husband's grandfather Francesco Paolo Piscatelli came from in Sicily. Perhaps we are related though, because the grandparents spelled their name "Piscatelli". My father-in-law, Peter, did not know why their family name was changed from Piscatelli to Pescatello, but obviously it was not changed long ago...as Piscatelli is the name on the grandparent's headstone.
I did find, however, in my searching, that my mother-in-law's family (Lorello) did come from Tusa. Hopefully I can visit the area some day.
