My name is Nico Procaccini. I joined Gente to help me further my search of my Italian ancestry. I have had some success tracking my paternal grandfather's family back to Panni, Foggia. I have found the names of numerous relatives both in the US and in Italy. Panni is a town of about 1000 inhabitants and there are only a few surnames for the entire community. It seems that virtually everyone is related. The family names that I have in my ancestry are Senerchia, Colannino, DeCotis, Bisaccia, Calitri, Manuppelli and of course Procaccini. Please contact me if you would like to discuss possible connection. ncproc(at)aol(dot)com

Hi Nico and to "Gente". I'm so pleased you made it... you'll like it here I'm sure!

Listen up folks - Nico has some wonderful documents that he wants help translating and I convinced him to let us do it here on "Gente" - right Nico?

They look really interesting and he said he would post them one at a time - that way everyone can follow (and learn) from them.

So it's down to you now Nico - can't wait for you to post the first one(s) for us to get our teeth into!


PS - If you need any help posting them - just shout. There are loads of us who will help!

Carole, sorry i misunderstood you. i thought you were going to post the documents, but i ok i will do it, with a little help. how do i get them on the site for others to read?

Hi Nico and welcome to Gente.

Another way is to use an uploading service such as imageshack.us/ or photobucket.com/.

you would save the image to your Hard Drive and then use the browse feature to upload the file. You will then me given a list of choices of of links to chose from to post the document.
