MIne too…! I’m serious…!
Colle di Mezzo Italy, In the Abruzzo and Molise region. What is truly amazing about that is this: That small mountain town today has only 540 people in population, Imagine what it had for population for the 1880’s when my great grandfather Camilo Di Lello and his wife Carmela ( nee Simonetti ) immigrated to Ellis Island from there…!
Colle di Mezzo actually is due east of Rome almost as far as the Adriatic Sea, but still up there in the mountains. That’s where people in political trouble went to hide out from authorities. My great x6 grandfather was a Barron ( Il Barone ) who got his ass excommunicated because he got caught messing about with one of the Cardinal’s mistresses…! Don’cha hate when that happens…?
Colle di Mezzo today has a large lake there in the valley called Lago di Bamba. It is a dammed up river. It wasn’t there in the 1880’s. There was a major earth quake centered about 55 miles north west of there about a year and a half ago. You don’t want to be anywhere neer to a dammed up river during an earth quake… but they were okay. Tremmors of that quake were felt 70 miles away in the Vatican city, but Colle di Mezzo felt nothing.

This is no B.S. My father’s family and the Tomato Head’s are from the same place. He and I could actually be related.
Maso, I think you mean Ellis Island? Rikers Island is a prison in the east river up near LaGuardia Airport.
No……….I think he meant Rikers….. 😆 😆 😆
