Acho que vc. fala portugues, por isso falo na sua lingua. A maioria dos Torretta ficam concentrados na area de Milão, alem disso não sei como ajudar vc. Tente pesquisar na guia do telefone da Italia (www.info412.it)

Neste site da pra ver a distribuição dos sobrenomes na italia: http://www.gens.labo.net/en/cognomi/genera.html

Até logo...
