Re: Santella family of Campobasso
Three possible towns of origin:
I have three Santella families in my database that originated in Jelsi (CB).
One Santella entry might have originated in Gambatesa (CB) -- her son was born there and her husband died there.
All of the above families ended up in Campobasso (CB).
In addition, the surname Santella was assigned as a surname to a foundling on at least one occasion in Campobasso (CB).
