Arce, Frosinone/Caserta.Maternal last name on birth record.
Thank you very much.

Re: Eating Spaghetti in Naples
Yes, thanks ! My ancestors were Casertan macaroni makers , millers, and pizza makers, so I included in my tree several illustrations of open air macaroni making and munching like those you shared.
