The Pasquale and Jennie in my family have no children named Gary. It must be another Patsy and Jennie.

I found that my g-g-p were from Bracigliano. Pasquale came over in 1899 and she followed later. They married in Springfield MA. She is only listed on all the goverment paperwork as Jennie.

I thought the same thing but my great aunt swears that her name was Twanene. Thanks for the reply

I am trying to find out if my grandmother's name is real. I was told that her real name was Twanene (twa-nene) Cardaropoli. They called her Jenny. English translation is supposed to be Janine. Anyone ever heard it before?
