          Welcome to Liza DeCredico's Italian Genealogy

          I put these web pages and links together to tell other's about my struggle to know my cousins in Abruzzo, Italy. I found my cousins by accident and I have flown to Italy twice now, to know who they are. I want them in my life.

          I want them to know that I care and that I am curious and here, in the world. Even though it is a distance away, I am only a phone call,letter or photograph away. I can be part of their lives. Come with me on my true adventure that will make you laugh and cry with me. To read my story vist one of the links below.

          Why bother finding my cousins clear in Italy? To know who my family are in the world. To see other cousins face to face with my same colored eyes, same color hair, same eye brows, same height, someone who shares my same Great Grand Parents..........

          These family members may speak another language, they may comb their hair another way, but they are my family. Finding family in Italy has to be a force that is with in a person. It does require a person to know their language or use a translation program. Because once you start a relationship with these lost cousins, it takes a lot of dedication to know them and keep the family candle burning.

          They will want to know all about you and your family. They are just as curious about you, as you are of them. So, if you have started searching for your lost family and make contact, write often, send photographs, telephone them once in a while. It all has worked out for me. I am very proud of my accomplishments in searching them out.

          There will be a lot of obstacles in your way, but keep going. They are often wondering when another lost relative will discover them and find their path back to them. It will be an amazing journey for anyone searching. I am so happy I made the effort to know the unknown out in the world.

          Di Credico or De Credico, no matter how it is spelled now, to me the name originated from the spelling Di Credico. I have written to every family with these surname spellings, in the whole world.

          One meaning people have given me is that the Credico's owned lot's of land. And people from our village used to come to our relatives and put their land up for colladeral. Then,we would lend them money to put their gardens in,as well as many projects they were working on to survive back in the 1700's, 1800's and early 1900's.

          So the surname has been told to me means "House of Credit." If anyone has any other meaning of this name please e-mail me or sign my guestbook.

          No matter where a family lives in our world today, I have managed to trace ALL of them back to Abruzzee, Italy. All small cities located around or not far from Chieti, Italy.

          These are my Italian Surnames that I am researching. DeCredico, Di Credico, Pietrocola, Puglielli,Credico, Rabottini, Petrongolo, Baboro, Evangelista, Ambrosini, Andreamatteo, Cocco, La Cioppa, Inocencia, De Marchis, DiGenio, DiJenio,Tacconelli and Parenti:)
