wow! sounds like there is a connection but how I cannot tell yet.I never knew my DiBlasi side or my biological father (Charles DiBlasi).What I know is that his father's name was Maurice (maybe originally Mariano) DiBlasi.I have a birth certificate that lists a Mariano Di"B"rasi being born the same day as Maurice at 28 Norman street, Boston.His father's name on birth certificate is Philip DiBrasi.His mother is listed only as Maria. Their place of residence was listed as 15 Barton Street, Boston.
What I know of my paternal grandmother Lena is from her birth certificate: born in Dayton, OH.Father's name Saverio K. Mascheri (but I think is pronounced Mascari or somehow the same as.Her mother's name is listed as Therese Scolario (or something similar-hard to decipher old handwriting).
I know of the Corso-DiBlasi connection through Dennis White whose mother (Nina Corso White) mother's maiden name was DiBlasi.He also said that my grandmother Lenawas married to his grandmother's cousin (that would be Maurice ?)
I've found out that the DiBlasi's were into the restaraunt business also.Sub shops and the like.
I hope I've sent some info you can use-probably not since I don't know even my father.Email me back and let me know if YOU can figure it all out.I'll try also when I'm not tired.
Thanks, Nicole
