Vala Moro

dlhodgson — 2005-12-26 04:06:43Z

Hi!
I was so excited to find your message about Vala Moro. I went on genealogy websites looking for the name because I'm trying to research some art my husband purchased at a flea market. They are signed Vala Moro and were purchased in Vienna. They are from around 1930. I found that several prints of hers have been sold at auction in Europe over the last few years, but could find little information about her or the art. Then, while searching on the internet, I found a partial message in German on a dance web site looking for information on her. It said she danced in Vienna from 1927-1933. But since I think the message was deleted and the site does not have archives, I was unable to find the name or email of the person who posted it. Was it you? If not, I did post on that board myself and hope they get back to me. I'm becoming more and more fascinated by my search for Vala Moro, and if you have anything to share with me, please do. dl_hodgson@hotmail.com

I am trying to trace my family ancestors. Your message caught my eye. My grandfather was Umberto Moro. I thought he was born in Accera, Italy (near Naples) in 1896. He married a Teresa Stompanato and they had one daughter, Carmella, before immigrating to America and settling in Cicero, Illinois around 1918 or 1919. My father, Ciro Moro (later changed to Gerald Scott Moro) was born on November 2, 1920 and died on January 31, 1969. My grandparents produced four other children, Carmen, Albert, Grace and Michael. Carmen passed away in 1978.

If you think we may be related, please email me directly - cmoro@iinet.net.au I have a lot more information to pass on.

This is in reply to your message regarding the surname Moro. My maiden name is Moro and I am from the region of Italy in which Padua is located which is Veneto. I now reside in Ohio. I wonder if the person you are searching is related to my father's family.

This would be my great-grandfather, born April 27, 1883. He was from the Padova, San Martino Di Lupari, area. He was married to Amalia Moro, born July 28, 1887 and had at least one son named Aurelio Moro, born May 15, 1910 (I think). If anyone has any information I would appreciate hearing from you.

Hi ! My family just had a reunion a couple of weeks ago and we just found out that our ancestor was a Spanish-born Portuguese who had lived in the Philippines in the late 1500's. That is all we know about him.
We are all trying to update work on our family tree. We would all appreciate it if you have any information to share with us. Thanks.
