Re: Reda family from Consenza

Dear Michelle,

My family is from Domanico Cosenza and there are Redas who live there. I have visited and met a Mrs. Reda who worked for the tourist bureau in Cosenza.
She is now retired.

Domanico is very close to Carolei;

PS I think I am somehow related to the Redas too.

Re: Reda family from Consenza

Hi JS -

I have been trying to find family in Italy. My father was Louis Domanico & lived in Niagara Falls, NY. I know we have relatives who a Redas. Which Domanico's are you related to?

Hi Christi I was wondering who the Redas are that you are related to. At this time, I have no found no Domanicos in my research.

Regards
Michelle

Re: Reda family from Consenza

Hi Michelle -- I posted yesterday (2007!) - My Reda's are from Carolei & Domanico.

Briefly, since it is similar to previous post:

Grandparents: Giovanni Antonio & Filomena Reda
Filomenas was also a Reda,

John's Parents: Gaetano Reda/Maria Antonia Greco
Gp's: P-Giuseppe Reda/Giuseppine Greco
M- Gaetano Greco/Rosaria Buffone
(Domanico)

Filomena: Anotonio Maria Reda/Innocenza Greco Guarascio
Gp's: P-Francesco Reda/Maria Carmela Ragusa
M-Vincenzo Guarascio/Nicolina Decicco
(Carolei)

I saw some other Ragusa's with Reda's on the message board; however, it appears that one cannot just post to a reply on this board. I'm somewhat confused.
Anyway,

Take care.

Hi Jacqueline-

Yes, I am related to the Redas, also. What city are you from? I am from Niagara Falls, NY, but I know we have many relatives in Canada, as well.

Hi Rita,
I have a Vincenzo Ragusa on my tree. He was born 09/04/1894. His name was changed to Jim Ross when he came to America. He married Rosaria Reda. Both were born in Carolei. When she passed away, he remarried someone with the last name Dolche. He died on 01/07/1985 in Mt. Vernon, PA. He had 2 kids, Joe and Rose. I'm not sure which one is the mother. Does any of this click with you?
