Message: Linda,

Are any of your Mirabella's in Calif? I am researching RINELLA and a cousin of mine recalls the name Mirabella - possibly in CA. However, they may have started out in Chicago. Joe Laiacona and I think we may be related thru the Rinella's and now with your connection to him, perhaps there is another connection. I am at a standstill in my research so any little bit would help.

Message: Sandy: Thank you for your note. I would love to find that connection out here in California. In fact California may be the place some of that family resides. A few years back I met a young woman married to a Mirabella here in California at a time when I had no idea of a family name connection to me. If her uncle is still living I may be able to locate her. And before I received your e-mail I was toying with the idea of doing this because I can find nothing on Mirabella on the web. It was the mother of my great grandmother who was a Mirabella. Her name was Anna Mirabella (isn't that a lovely name). She was married to Giuseppi Pirrone and they had a daughter Giuseppa. I cannot find the name Mirabella on any of the ancestry lists on the web. But I am so new to this that I may not have the right sites. And there is no Mirabella on the Termini list. Perhaps the man with those Sicilian directories might tell us if there are any Mirabellas in Termini today. I am hoping that the researcher may eventually find something. I certainly will share what I find with you on the names your are searching.

Subject: Diega Pusateri/ Donna Guiffre

Message: Today, I noticed through a page named Guiffre Family that an Antonino Giuffre was married to a Diega Pusateri. You report they were born around 1770. The earliest Pusateri I have is 1810 a Giuseppe Pusateri. Do you have any information on Diega's family--siblings, parents that might link her to my Giuseppe Pusateri. I thought it cannot hurt to ask. Thanks.

Subject: Paul Caito listing

Message: Regarding Mariano Caito. I have a Mariano Ardizzone-Caito born 1786 who might be the father of your Mariano. I only have one son listed for him ,Pietro, who was the father of Anna Ardizzone-Caito who married Giovanni Brucato and came to San Francisco about 1888. They were my great grandparents. My grandparents knew many Caitos in San Francisco. I have more information if any of these names connect. The Ardizzone was dropped in this country by those they knew. This is my first try on this database so I hope you get this message.
