Thank you. I was just searching for resources that explained how to interpret passenger lists.

Re: Great-grandmother's First Name
Being familiar with records in Lacedonia, I would say that her mother's maiden name was actually "de Vincentis," which is a name I have in my tree. I'd be very interested to see how we are related; there was really only one main de Vincentis family in Lacedonia.

I sent you a PM.
Re: Great-grandmother's First Name
Hi! I am not sure what the chances are that you might see this message as this thread has been inactive for quite a long time, but I wanted to reach out as I cam across your post when I searched Pierro. My great grandfather's last name (and grandmother's maiden name) was Pierro and he came to the U.S. in 1918 from Lacedonia, Avellino, Campania, Italy! I wonder if they could have been siblings or cousins? I will also send you a PM!
