Received letter from Palarmo could someone help , it is very short. Thanks in advance
in data odierna abbiamo avuto il piacere di recevere la sua lettera.
Io sono il figlio di Antonina Glaviano che e nata a Palazzo Adriano il 16 Novermre 1917 ed e ancora vivente.
Mia madre e figlia di Nicolo Glaviano (nato nel 1864 circa e morto nel 1958) e di Maria Troncale. Quello che le posso dire e che effettivamente mio nonno aveva dei parenti negli USA (sicuramente una sorella che si chiamava Carloina e dei cugini di cui non ricordiamo i nomi di battesimo). Questa sua lettera cosi inaspettata ma tanto gradita, ci ha fatto nascere una grande curiosita di sapere se effettivamente c' e una parentela fra noi. Allora, le prometto che appena mi e possibile andro al municipio di Palazzo Adranio per vericare con certezza una eventuale parentela.
Intanto, al saluto con grande simpatia, e speriamo di potere essere anche parenti!!

We have had the pleasure of receiving your letter.
Io sono il figlio di Antonina Glaviano che e nata a Palazzo Adriano il 16 Novermre 1917 ed e ancora vivente.
I am the son of Antonina Glaviano who was born in Palazzo Adriano on the 16 of November 1917, and who is still alive.
this is so cool!!
Mia madre e figlia di Nicolo Glaviano (nato nel 1864 circa e morto nel 1958) e di Maria Troncale.
My mother is the daughter of Nicolo Glaviano (born about 1864 and died 1958) and is the daughter of Maria Troncale.
Quello che le posso dire e che effettivamente mio nonno aveva dei parenti negli USA (sicuramente una sorella che si chiamava Carloina e dei cugini di cui non ricordiamo i nomi di battesimo).
What I can say is that my Grandfather did have relatives in the USA (for sure - one sister who's name was Carolina... and also had cousins who's baptismal names we cannot remember...)
Questa sua lettera cosi inaspettata ma tanto gradita, ci ha fatto nascere una grande curiosita di sapere se effettivamente c' e una parentela fra noi.
This unexpected letter is most appreciated and now we are very curious to find out if we are related.
Allora, le prometto che appena mi e possibile andro al municipio di Palazzo Adranio per vericare con certezza una eventuale parentela.
So then... I promise that when I get a chance, I will attend the Palazzo Adranio Town Hall to verify with certainty the relationship..
Intanto, al saluto con grande simpatia, e speriamo di potere essere anche parenti!!
In all, kindest regards and I hope we turn out to be also relatives!

Marie;
Thank you very much. I appreciate what you did and I think your Italian translation was GREAT Paige18
Ps. I never did locate Ann Sulla's manifest. I checked every east coast port using her married and maiden names.
