Dear Frances: This is the second time I am trying to send this to you. The computer has been acting up, so I hope you get it. I sent a message to you via the message board where you first found me, but I will give you a little background. My mother's mother came from Agnone. Her name was Giacinta Carosella(Caroselli); she married Antonio Orlando. She had one brother, Francesco, and several sisters, three of which were: Rosaria, Philomena, Rosina and Marietta. Some of our family names are: Carosella, Orlando, DePasquale, Amacore. My father's father came from Pizzone, Prov Isernia, Molise. His name was Dominic and his brother was Alfredo. He had four sisters, one of which was named Gemma. I will be going back to Italy for the first time in 35 years in July of 2001. Most of my time will be with the family in Molise and a friend in Pescara, Abbruzzo. I hope this helps us to get to know one another. As I said in my title, "All Agnone are family". Merry Christmas. Vincent Mancini
