I have Scimemi relatives in Marsala and I wonder if you know or are related to any of them.My connection is that Mary Giacalone wife of Leonardo Lavela was my aunt.And all of these families are either still in Marsala or came to America and lived in the Chicago area.Please respond if you or anyone knows anything about any of these People
Thank youand God bless you,
Wayne Giacalone
