  1. seeking information on Giuseppe Mignogna and Concetta Mignogna who migrated from Italy to Pennsylvania in 1925 approximately.
    [email protected]; Antonio Mignogna is the son of the above and left Italy in 1925 approximately.

  2. Hi Connie this is Linda Drake my mom was Natalie Caroline maiden name Mignogna. My great grandpa Dominick Mignogna had parents named Pasquale and Concetta (Santelli)Mignogna but in Dominick death cert it says parents pasquale and Mary Moffa. Yet on my Moms mom side I have great grandparents Andy DeBone and Carmella(Moffa) DeBone?? I got lots if pics

  3. Would love to find information on Filomena Moffa, who came over to the United states in 1901- she was born in 1877- her father was Pasquale Moffa, and her mother was Lucia Rosa Iapalucci. It looks like I finally found her place of birth- Riccia- Just would love to know any information that could be out there. She was a brave young woman!

  4. I am trying to locate a baptismal certificate for someone born in Riccia during the 1920s. I was told the Church was named “Holy Rosary” but I do not see that church listed in Riccia CB. Any ideas about how to track down church records from the 1920s?

  5. My Grandfather Joseph and Father Angelo Nicolella emigrated to the US in the early 1900’s. Are there any Nicolella’s still residing in Riccia that might be related to them.

  6. I am looking for any information about Pasquale Moffa and Ingronite Morose. I am their great great granddaughter.

  7. I discovered this website yesterday and tried to post a comment. Not sure it took so I’m trying one more time. I’m looking for the parents of my grandfather, Giuseppe Papino Mignogna, BORN: April 5, 1898, in Riccia. His father’s name was Donato Mignogna and mothers name Cugino Incoronata. Giuseppe was married to Maria Grazia on December 18, 1920, in Riccia. My grandfather did come to the US in 1921 and his brother, Salvatore two years earlier. As far as we know his parents remained in Italy. My grandfather settled in Kennett Square, PA and was a mushroom farmer before buying a bar in Chester, PA. Thank you in advance to all for any and all help. I have reviewed the above comments in order to do the same.
