My father in law was Michele Piacentini b. abt 1923 Egypt. His parents immigrated to Egypt from Malta and had 5 sons. Two immigrated to Australia (Michele and Joseph) along with their mother later in her life. The other three boys went to America. Their father had died in Egypt when Michele was small. He was also the youngest
Michele use to say that his family had originaally lived in Piacenza Italy but his grandfather or g/grandfather had moved them to Malta.
I have not been able to find anything for the Piacentinis in Egypt or Mslta, am not even sure if the 5 boys were all born in Egypt or some in Malta.

My grandfather is the Constantino you are referring to, however he is from tivoli also not far from Rome and I believe had all sisters. The timing is very close however.

Hi, I'm curious about my relatives. I come from the surname of Petrocco but am kind of in the dark on that side of the family. I would like to know any connections or history.

My grandmother remarried and took the surname Beckmann, this left my father with that name and I am stuck with it as well. I would like to know about my real roots, though.

Pasquale Piacentini in CT

chrisckn — 2005-03-12 13:37:49Z

I am looking for information on Pasquale Piacentini. He is my Great Grandfather. According to the 1930 Census, he lived in New Haven, CT on Layfegette street with his son Ronald, Daughter Rena and my Grandmother Dora. Pasquale was married to Mary Fabian (Fabbiani) but she passed away prior to 1930. According to the census, Pasquale was 44 in 1930 which would put his birth abt. 1886 in Italy. I have also seen the surname Pacenti used. That is all the information I have, if anyone knows anything about this family I would appreciate any information!
Thanks
Chris

Sam,
I think we have a match! My grandfather was Angelo Piacentini and he married Concetta Covelli. They had 5 children: Dante, Vanda, Philip (my father), Vero & Mario.

Re: Piacentini's from Esperia

strusiak99 — 2004-12-17 01:56:33Z

I think you may be a cousin of ours. My greatgrandfather was Mariano Piacentini married to Scolastica Covelli.
They had three children, Raymond, Gloria, and my grandfather Ennio. We are trying to find relatives in New York and Connecticut

Re: Piacentini's from Esperia

2003-08-11 18:34:31Z

They are also from the higher one. Esperia Superiore

Re: Piacentini's from Esperia

2003-08-11 14:30:08Z

I too have been to Esperia quite a few times...my grandmother just passed away in 1996, however Clino died in 1939 so that may be why the name doesn't ring a bell.
Is your family from Esperia Inferior or Esperia Superior? My family is from the one higher on the mountain.....
Please let me know if you find any more info relating to Piacentini's from Esperia!

Re: Piacentini's from Esperia

2003-08-10 07:34:13Z

Then it's a pretty good possibility that we might be related. The name Filomena rings a bell for some odd reason (but not Clino). The town is pretty small (I have been there twice) but very picturesque and I remember when My Dad (Philip) and I went there. The minute the whole town found out we were Piacentini's, We had nothing but non stop partying at the houses and only 1 meal (Which lasted 8 hours!.) We had a great time.

Re: Piacentini's from Esperia

I haven't heard of Angelo and Concetta, but my grandparents Clino and Filomena Piacentini are from Esperia as well....

it is great to read about the other piacentinis in the U.S. My grandfather was Giuseppe Piacentini, born in San Bonifacio, Italy. He came to the United States in the early 1920s and settled in Marlboro, Ny in the Hudson Valley where he worked for a mining company. His wife, Angela Pesavento Piacentini, followed him with three children in tow, Luigi, Anna and Alberto. They had four more children: Giuseppe (died at 12 yrs of age), Ida (died as an infant) and Ida and Mario (twins) My mother was Ida who died in 1998. My great grandfather was a delivery man in Italy who died in an accident. My grandfather had one sister who came to the US, Maria. I know he had a sister, Beata who remained in Italy, and other siblings I don't know anything about. Is there any chance that there is another Piacentini family from the same region. While in the U.S. the family name was Americanized by schools and such as Pagentine.

I wanted to thank everyone for their replys and information. The research I was doing was for a school project on my grand-father Francic/Frank Piacentini. It's really very funny "what a small world it is". I've meet Jack Piacentini from Athens several years back and he's a distance cousin (one of Frank's many nephew's). He also has a son named Steve, whose wife and daughter were over to the house last week. Joyce, your grand-daughter is super cute.

Thanks Again!!!

Piacentini Relatives

1999-12-16 23:47:59Z

There is a John or Jack Piacentini in Athens, Georgia who is from Maine and I believe has a father or an uncle named Frank. He may be a descendant of the person you are looking for.

My Grandfather Carl Piacentini was from Lucca. He settled in Portland Oregon with his brother Angelo sometime around 1910. I know he had at least two sisters, Esther and Teresa, both of whom stayed in Italy.

Piacentini Family

1999-10-31 20:42:32Z

My Grandparents, Pio and Rose Piacentini came from Italy around 1913. They came from a small town East of Rome called Arsoli. As my father was orphaned, my Grandfather's family is a bit sketchy. We know that one of my grandfather's brothers went to Argentina. My father has found cousins in Arsoli and met them.

In any case Piacentini is a fairly common name in the north of Italy. We believe it originated in a town called Piacenza.

Over the web I have heard of several other Piacentini's. One was from the Carribean. If Constantino was from Arsoli, please drop me a note, we may be cousins.
