NOTES FROM FAMILY TREE COMPOSED BY ANN TONIA DAUGHTERY AND SUSAN
NANNA AFTER A CONVERSATION WITH GRAZIA DI PIETRANTONIO AROUND
1990: Angiolina's nickname was Di Pilucco which means
beautiful hair. This was probably the family nickname. They
spelt her name Angeolina instead of Angiolina. She was a trained
weaver. Angiolina came to the USA in 1905. She went back to
Italy after Mary and Charlie were born. Her husband, Domenico,
returned to Italy twice. Tony and Lena were born there. In
1923, Charlie returned to the USA. In 1924, Angiolina, Tony and
Lena returned to USA.

marcied@@NOL.net, weisscal@@pacbell.net I found some notes in a
drawer recently that I took one day when I was talking to Auntie
Grace on the phone. This was in Nov., 1991. It is not in any
particular order but has some family history in it. I have not
checked to see if the dates are correct with the family tree.
Some of the stuff does not really make any sense. It may be of
interest to you. 1895, Grandpa Aspromonte came to Hesperus,
CO at about 14 years old, possibly with his half brother.
Grandpa wanted to come dig coal. Grandma Aspromonte weaved cloth
in Italy but didn't know how to sew, mendclothes, nothing.
Grandpa went back to Italy to marry. Brought Grandma as a young
bride, but she got tired of life washing clothes, etc. Mary was
born and 10 months later Charlie was born. Then, Grandma went
back to Italy. She was tired of ladies criticizing her [in
America]. Charlie was 9 months old. Then, Grandpa went to Italy,
built a big vineyard and big house. Grandma got pregnant with my
dad, Tony, and two years later had Lena. When Charlie was 17,
decided to reunite the family. So, they all came back to
America. Charlie learned to be a shoemaker while in Italy. When
he came to America he just washed dirty shoes! Quit - was a
water boy on the railroad. Then worked on the rairoad. Then, he
went to work at the mine with Grandpa. Then Mary and Dan got
married in Italy and had their son Domenico. Charlie and Grandpa
paid to get Grandma, Lena and Tony back to America. At 17,
Charlie decided to back to Italy - stayed with Uncle Dan's
parents. Charlie knew Auntie Grace's sister and that's how he
met Auntie Grace. Then went back to Italy when he was 26 and
married. Nov. 1 in Philadelphia, Nov. 18, 1933 Grace to Durango.
973 - Clara and Grace returned to Italy. 977 - Back again to
Italy with Johnny and took the picture [Grace embroidered on an
old Singer treadle sewing machine] and donated it to the
Vatican. Grace was born April 27, 1914.
