Daniel:
In speaking with my father-in-law, he stated that he didn't know much about his father's family.However, his father's name was
Gaudenzio Iannetta, which was Anglicized to
James Jeannette when they reached New York.
His father was born in May of 1885 in a town
in Italy, which my father-in-law can pronounce, but isn't sure how to spell.It's something like Bulyana (sounds like that but is spelled entirely different, I think).
He married his wife, Lucia Ritotto (she was born in Brooklyn, NY); however, the families knew each other, I believe, before they came to the States.Gaudenzio and Lucia (James and Lucy) had 7 children, of which only 2 of them are living now--my father-in-law, Joseph, who lives in Duluth, MN and his sister, Dorothy, who lives in Everett, WA.My father-in-law said he would try to dig up more info.Hope this helps; it seems like this must fit in with what you have somehow--stay in touch.
Thanks.
