27.Aug.2004 | Massimiliano writes: Dear Cousins, It's a long time we don't keep in touch, but I didn't stop visiting this terrific site! It's fantastic to know other relatives in USA. However... I'd like to communicate the marriage of my brother Alessandro. He married Annalisa Luvarà (b 8/05/1969) on April 2004. Next month they will have a daughter...we are waiting for her. My love to you all, Massimiliano [see updates below] |

He is the son of Mary Louise Petty and Gioacchino Graffagnini, he was born on October 23, 1930, in New Orleans Louisiana. He married and had children with Arden L.

If you would like pictures of this group of family members as well as Aunts and Uncles I can send them to you. [see updates below] |
11.May.2004 | Kyla Magar sends note and clipping containing obit of Rosario Schilleci dated 1958: Dear Joel & Robert, My mom just sent me a scanned copy of an obituary that she found for Rosario G. Schilleci. Ive attached it for you. This gem should help me to expand my Schilleci line and after comparing names and dates [tonight after the kids are in bed ;0)], probably link our two families. If I can solidly link the two I will email you the info on our line. Have a blessed day, Kyla Magar [see updates below] |
8.Oct.2002 | Joel sends additional updates. [see updates below] |
2.Oct.2002 | Jean Graffagnini writes: Dear Joel, Friday my 75 year old father was elated when I brought him a printout of the information on his family (and mine). He is the son of Domenico Graffagnini (Family G) and Dorothy Godkin. His biggest surprise came when I printed out the picture of his grandfather, Carmelo Graffagnini(o), as an infant! I have some information for you if you would like to add it. [see updates below] |
17.Sep.2002 | Massimiliano writes: Dear Bob, last month, on
28th August, my aunt Caterina (Caterina
Salvatrice Graffagnini) died on account of a cancer. I give you this sad notice because aunt "Erina" loved your site and she used to ask me if I was in contact with you. Yours Massimiliano |
13.Dec.2001 | A new contact for Family G writes: "My husband's name is Leonard Sperandeo. His father's mother is a Graffagnini. Leonard's father, Paul Sperandeo, is around 70 years old right now. Leonard's grandmother had four brothers - Jake, Dominico, Vincent and Rosario. Leonard was born to Paul Sperandeo and Bonnie DeGrange on July 9, 1960. Leonard has a brother named Mark and two sisters named Deborah and Danielle. We live in Fair Oaks, CA." Midori Sperandeo [see updates below] |
25.Apr.2001 | A new contact for Family G writes: I am the great granddaughter of Filomena Graffagnini M Giovoni Schillesci in family G. My grandmother was Giacomina Schillesci Sciambra, wife of Jacob Sciambra. I would be glad to share information with you. Phyllis Maness, Bay St. Louis, MS |
15.Apr.2001 | Massimiliano writes: Dear Bob, I'm with my uncle
Peppino Richichi and his wife Ada Manca (They live in S.Sepolcro) and he
is telling me there are some mistakes:
I hope we have been useful. Happy Easter. Massimiliano [see updates below] |
3.Feb.2001 | After further investigation, it appears that Angie's great grandmother, Vincenza Anna, the younger sister of Massimiliano's great grandfather, Nicolò, also used the Graffagnini spelling of her name. It seems appropriate to assume that all 19 children of Gioacchino, Margherita, and Anna probably spelled the name that way. So, henceforth, all Family G members will be so designated. (I won't bother to color-code all of those changes!) Too bad we didn't call this Family I! |
1.Feb.2001 | An updated email address from Angie today, as well
as a few more corrections from Massimiliano. I have also added an email address
for Massimiliano's older brother, Alessandro. [see first updates in this background color below] |
31.Jan.2001 | THE GRAFFAGNINI CONNECTION: More info from Massimiliano. He informs us that all of his family - indeed perhaps all of Family G - have used the name Graffagnini since some time after Vincenzo Graffagnino and Rosalia Castrogiovanni [see Family A] married and left Salaparuta to live in Contessa Entellina. He suggests that a clerical error registering the names of one or more of their children (or grandchildren) resulted in the name change. [see updates in white below] |
30.Jan.2001 | A new contact for Family G, Massimiliano Lorenzetti, has provided us with updated information for the family. Massimiliano lives in Rome and is a solicitor for the Tax Department. He is the son of Rosamaria Graffagnini, a teacher, and Piergiorgio Lorenzetti, a carabiniere, who live on the coast of Sicily, in Mazara del Vallo, Trapani. [see updates in white below] |
