Help deciphering the name of this place?
Can anyone puzzle out the name of the town given as the "place of birth" on this draft card for Nicola Vitale?

Hi I believe that the birth place is TEANA, Potenza province, Basilicata region; I found the WWII record:
U.S. World War II Draft Registration Cards, 1942 about Nicholas Vitale
Name: Nicholas Vitale
Birth Date: 5 Mar 1892
Birth Place: Potenza, Italy
Residence: Rich, New York
Race: White
wife Filomena, and I am sure that is the same person that moved from NY to NJ
and if my search is right the full name was VITALE Francesco Nicola born in Teana on 4 March 1891 son of Giuseppe age 28 farmer and of Marianna Mingo
birth act:

Funny...I had made a note to come back after work today and ask you "who went to NJ? I thought they went to Staten Island!
"
Thank you, again! I am about to dive into the records from Teana. I am sure I will be pestering you again later.![Smile :)](/phpBB3/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
