I was brought up in Ridgewood. As a youngster remembered attending Tyrolean Trentin dances with my family. My father Tomasino Tanel & my mother Ida Leonardelli came from Spormaggiore as newlyweds to New York City.

My family name is Yannes, presumably Iannes (in fact I think maybe Ianes) in Tirol. The family homestead is in Castlefondo, which I've visited. My Grandmother's maiden name was Enama, I think from Mezzolombardo(?). The family settled in Hazleton, PA.

Looking for any research on the "Segna" name. It appears that most originated out of Salobbi. I would be interested in any information on this surname.

My parents (Mani Chini of Segno and Anelia Maccani of Tres) immigrated to New York City in the 1930s. Our paternal grandfather (Battista Chini) worked as a miner in West Virginia and Ohio. Our maternal grandfather (Giulio Maccani) worked in upstate New York, New York City, and in northeastern Pennsylvania.

Thanks for all the help in locating Menapace family name. I continue to research my family and have gone back to the 1700s. My grandfather was from Pavillo and his name was Herman Menapace. He married Maria Zadra in that province. I still search for his arrival in the United States and look for their marriage record. A son was born before they came. His name was Guido Menapace.

My family originated in Amblar. Asson is still a viable name in Amblar, Don, Cavareno, and Romeno. I have been able to reconnect to the family of my grandfather, Fedele Asson (b 13 March 1872) who immigrated prior to 1890. My grandmother was from Malgolo and also immigrated prior to 1890. Her name was Rosa Gabardi (b 17 December 1867). Val di Non is truly my home. America is my place of residence.

Thanks for a wonderful site! My great grandparents (surname ENDRIZZI) came from Cavedago about 1904. I'm interested in connecting with anyone doing research on the ENDRIZZI, ZENI or DALSASS names and the village Cavedago and surroundings.

My grandfather, Jerry Gob ( b. 1893) was in Colorado in the early 1900's with his brother whom we knew as Louie, who eventually settled in NY. Jerry went back to Trentino, was married to Ida Flaim (Nona), returned and settled in Pittsburgh, PA.

My grandmother, Alelina Pitscheider came from Dambel. I always believed my grandfather, Giuseppe DeGiorgio
came from a small village near Trento, called Spera. However, I find no references to this village. I would be grateful for any guidance.

It is very interesting to see what an immense work you did to trace your ancestors! Our family is also like your Pilati ancestors, from Tassullo and we have our genealogical tree going very far into the centuries. Our family left Trentino at the beginning of the 18th century! But we bear the name of the place since our ancestors were barons of Tassullo.
The eldest ancestor to which the filiation goes back without interruption is Nicola (Nikolaus) Pilati di Tassullo - ennobled with the predicate of Tassullo by the bishop of Trient 13.2.1642 - He was born in Mezzocorona 1580 and died in Mezzocorona 15.5.1647. He was the son of Johann-Baptist Pilati and Costanza Maria von Goldeck. He married Anna Maria de Manincor von Freieck und Casez-Ehrenhausen. This gentelman who was ennobled had brothers who were called only Pilati, like his father. This means that the family from this moment onwards was divided into 2 branches:the noble one, started by Nicola, and the common one with all his brothers.

My grandparents came from the villages of Dardine and Mollaro in the Val di Non. I am researching the surnames of TARTER, FRASNELLI, SANDRI, ARNOLDI, MENAPACE, CADEN and VALENTINI.

I am a Chini and I live in Cordoba, Argentina. My grandfather Elio Eusebio Chini was from Segno. My branch appears in the book by Marco Chini, in "TABELLA IV".V. My great-grandfather was Francesco, and married Annunziata Barbacovi. I want to give you my congratulations for the extraordinary job that you developed. Maybe you can help me to look for the "lost" American branch of Chini -- a brother of my great-grandfather Francesco emigrated to Pennsylvania. He married Rosa Pastorelli and they had a son Primo.

Complimenti per l'enorme mole di lavoro fatto! La mia origine è di Gemona del Friuli. Osservando alcune delle foto degli Iob, mi semrano assai simili d'aspetto a quelle di molti miei parenti Friulani. Sarebbe una cosa interessante fare un'analisi genetica sui vari ceppi (basta la saliva o un capello..) Aspetto Sue notizie. Dott. Ivo Iob

My ancestors come from Val di Non, specifically Campo Tassullo and Nanno. In addition to your wonderful web-site, another way for English-speaking Trentini to keep in touch is via the yahoogroups mailing list I set up a few months ago. If anyone visiting here is interested in joining the list, just go to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Trentini_of_NA/ for information about subscribing
