Luigia Piromallo and Ubaldo Sorrentino

Welcome to another captivating conversation with me, Bob Sorrentino. This time around, I’m thrilled to share a lively chat with Anne Tatangelo from Angel Research. We explore our shared passion for family roots, tracing lines back to places as diverse as Frosinone. Anne’s English heritage offers fascinating tales of weavers and coal miners, and an elusive mystery ancestor that’s got us all intrigued. And if you’ve never considered the role of the silkworm in Calabria or what Renaissance men wore in Italy, prepare to be enlightened!

 Exchanging experiences, we reflect on the challenges of piecing together original surnames from often missing or misinterpreted ship manifests – critical in navigating the labyrinth of genealogical research. We revisit the importance of pinpointing that crucial town of origin to unlock the secrets of your Italian lineage. You’re going to discover that genealogy is not merely a hobby, but an adventure that takes you through time and space.

We conclude with Anne painting a vivid picture of her life in Italy. Bob brings to life his hilarious train station anecdote. In an exciting revelation, she enlightens us about her latest project. For those of you yearning to discover your Italian roots, this is a golden opportunity. So, join us in this hearty conversation and let yourself be transported to the vibrant heart of Italy with every word.
