His parents were Nicola Falcone also born in Chieti province in the Crecchio region, and his mother was Anna Domenica Mascitti also born in Crecchio, Chieti.

Having come across this wonderful site for the first time, I was surprised to learn that my parents' hometown of Secinaro, L'Aquila was without an entry in the guestbook. Nestled in the plush mountains of Sirente, neighbour to other guest-book notables such as Petorano sul Gizio and Castelvecchio, Secinaro is knowns as much for its umbrella artisans as it is for its breathtaking view from la piazza. As far as I know I paisani in North America have clustered mostly in Hamilton Ontario, Detroit Michigan and Steubenville Ohio. Anywhere else?Ray Di Gregorio < maryjane

Salve!
Vorrei comunicarvi una interessante uscita sul nostro sito www.bravaitalia.com cioé la celebrazione di san Francesco d'Assisi.
Oltre al filmato sulla cerimonia religiosa, c'è un'intervista ad alcuni francescani ed un filmato che testimonia l'esperienza di molti turisti ad Assisi. Il filmato che ripercorre la vita di Francesco attraverso i luoghi è accompagnato da una musica suggestiva e...il Cantico delle Creature recitato da Bosetti e Gassman.
Venite a trovarci!

Sono stato nato in Fara Filiorum Petri, provincia di Chieti in maggio del 1956. Da allora fino a giugno del 1958 ho vissuto nella casa dei miei nonni paterni, Via Madonna dell Ponte, 83, Fara Filiorum Petri. Il nome di mio padre è Romano Bucciarelli ed i suoi genitori sono Marietta Bucciarelli e Paolo DiGiuseppe, ambo è decesso. Mia madre, la cui nome davanti matrimonio era Leda Ottaviano, è da Fresagrandinaria, provincia di Chieti. I suoi genitori sono Natalina Ottaviano e Cosimo Racano, anche deceduto. In 1956 mio padre ha emigrato ai Stati Uniti e mia madre e ho emigrato in giugno del 1958.Negli Stati Uniti la mia famiglia ha vissuto nella città di Binghamton, New York dove mio padre ha molte zie, zii e cugini. Non conosco la maggior parte di miei parenti in Abruzzo. Quelli che ho saputo non ho visto da quando ero due anni e non li ricordo. Mi piacerebbe stabilire contatto coi miei parenti, o con qualcuno che ha conosciuto i miei nonni, genitori o io come un bambino. Cognomi noti dei miei parenti includono: Bucciarelli, DiGiuseppe, Ottaviano, Racano, Longhi, e Cerratani.
Il mio altro interesse è l'eredità culinaria di Abruzzo. Mia moglie ed io siamo ambi ammiratori della cucina di Abruzzo e spesso cuciniamo pasti tradizionali Abruzzese da ricette che sono state date ci da mia madre e dalla zia di mia padre. C'interessiamo a corrispondere con qualcuno in Abruzzo, o altrove, che azioni il nostro interesse in cibo e cottura. Ci piacerebbe ricevere ricette tipico di Abruzzo, ed anche ricette da altro regioni di Italia, ambo tradizionale e contemporaneo.
Finalmente, ho sentito di una scuola della cottura famosa ha localizzato in Abruzzo che si è laureato molti chef eccellenti, molti di che cucina in ristoranti nella città di New York. Mi interesso a contattare questa scuola ma non posso trovare informazioni di lui. Se qualcuno conosce il nome, indirizzo e numero del telefono di questa scuola, come allora come un nome contattare, mi piacerebbe conoscerlo. Per favore contatto io a eligio
Spedisco i miei riguardi a tutta la gente di Abruzzo.
