• Stories from Grandpa Jack:Never Trust Your Cousins

    21. april, Italien ⋅ ⛅ 72 °F

    We spent some of our free time collecting a few of Dad's stories about his Italian grandparents, Guilio Campoli and Argia DiPietro. Here's the first!

    There are lots more stories, but this was a fun start in some of the places they lived in or visited!

    Giulio was born in Alatri, and Argia was born in Cisterna di Latina. They were married in Cisterna di Latina - perhaps even in the church we visited before it was bombed during the war.

    The names of the towns they immigrated from came down just mixed up enough that I had a hard time finding them, but finally found enough records to confirm the correct places.

    I hope everyone enjoys these stories that have been passed down through the family!
