WOW, Wow Wow.....Thank you so much, your help kinda makes them come alive again. I just got off the phone with my 82yr old aunt in New York City ( she is so excited and very talkative after midnight there)...tonight was the first time she heard her great and great great grand parents names. You made an old lady very happy...so I am very grateful for your hard work. Actually when I was reading your report it kinda brought tears to my eyes...not really sure why... but I kinda think we made a lot of ancestors happy in wanting to know them. Russ D. in CA

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! We were delighted to read the research report. It is thrilling to know that we have finally made the jump across to Italy. It was a real sticking point for us. Based on the information we got from you about my grandfather's real name, I found him and my grandmother in the 1900 census! Maira C. in NY

A person that helped me quite a bit was a Kathy Kirkpatrick. She travels to Italy and Sicily often and was a big help in locating info on our side. Jim C. in NC

It was terrific, and I deeply appreciated the pictures…Larry Y. in CA

You did a wonderful job. many thanks. George K. in WI

Received the report yesterday and had a great time reading and sharing the family you uncovered. We would love it if you could keeping digging-I would like to know more about Pasquale the shoemaker and his mother, as well as all of the painters. Karen C. in CA

Received your research packet Saturday, and we were delighted with all the information contained. I can't tell you how we have been enjoying going through this material. I envy your research talents, as not even a mere amateur myself, I have tried to learn patience, in trying to obtain the littlest bit of info. We have accumulated much info ourselves, and the paper trail grows daily. Thanks so much for your professionalism, and respect shown to our family, that means so much to us. Kathy M. in GA

Your packet and pictrues arrived in yesterday's mail. Many thanks. I sat and watched the photos. What a mystery! I have not heard either the di Domenico or Rizzo names before. There is another of the untold stories that drive me--however futally-- to want to know people's lives. That's why, I guess, literature exists: to fill in the holes, fill up the whole, of lives that history and even genealogy can't quite do. SO off we go to imagination land. At any rate, thank you for all you do--for all of us. Chris G. in NY

Thank you for interesting and exciting results! Jim P. in RI

Kathy, I'm impressed. Your work has exceeded my expectations. I am truly grateful. I would like to continue. Frank L. in TX

You are the BEST! This is great... Elizabeth C. in FL


My latest book has the obvious title of Palermo and Catania Provinces (Italy) - A Reference for Researchers and will soon be available on CD. With a file for each town (plus many other files), it relates the history of Italy as reflected in the records and festivals of its towns.
