My Fathers grand parents emmigrated to Providence, RI from Panni as well.
My Great Grandma Maria Bocchichio was born 1889 in Pani and my Great Grandpa Saverio M. Besachio was born 1883 in Pani as well.
They arrived in the US sometime between 1909 and 1913 according to birth places of their children.
My Father has done a lot of work over the years putting our family tree together.
