While I am not a "Balbo", I am a "Conetta", which would make me related to you on your great grandmother's side. My grandfather, Edward Conetta had two children named Paul and Peter. They each went on to have two girls each. I am the daughter of Paul Conetta. There are no more "Conettas" here in the States but in Sicily there is a whole town that is full of us. I also hear they are all boys (good for us) so the family name will not be lost.<br>Feel free to e-mail me anytime as i would also like to hear about my own roots. If you are like me, there are only a few of us left and i would like to find out as much about our geneology as possible. I think i have picture of your great grandmother's brothers that i could scan and send. Let me know which format, i.e. gif, tif, etc. is best for your computer.<br>Hope to hear from you soon.<br>rayna 2002-02-01 15:29:50Z http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.balbo/10.1/mb.ashx http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.balbo/1.2.1.1/mb.ashx She's "only" Itala Balbo. 2001-12-20 09:15:17Z http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.balbo/1.2.1.1/mb.ashx http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.balbo/1.2.1/mb.ashx Would your mother-in-law be Itala Fox-Balbo?<br>I have an Itala Fox in my lineage 2001-12-20 04:56:39Z MHKent http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.balbo/1.2.1/mb.ashx http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.balbo/1.3/mb.ashx My family line of the surname Balbo is said to have originated from Rome,Italy and that the family moved to Teggiano,Italy about 200 years ago.The family remained in Teggiano for generations,some to present.My line immigrated to New York in 1950's.The town of Teggiano is in Province of Salerno. 2001-10-21 15:14:15Z jdora http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.balbo/1.3/mb.ashx http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.balbo/10/mb.ashx My great grandfather Stefano Balbo and great grandmother Maria Conetta (Santangelo) Balbo came to Baltimore,Maryland in 1904 with three childen Francesca P. my grandmother,Antonino and Gesawaldo ( not shore on spelling ) but one brother stayed in Italy or Sicily name unknow.
