LaMonica Family Website
Ciao! Come stai? Welcome to the LaMonica Family Website, and thanks for stopping by. Bookmark this site, so it's easy to visit often and keep up to date on current events in the LaMonica family.
This branch of the LaMonica family originated in Santa Caterina Villarmosa, which is near the provincial capital of Caltinessetta, Sicily. The original immigrants were the children of Calogero LaMonica and Maria Rosa Costa.
Although they are all deceased now, their names were: Michelina (married to Interbartolo), Piertro, Giuseppe, Rosa (married to Terravecchia) and Maria (married to Rey). All of these migrated to Southwestern Pennsylvania except Michelina, who resided in Boston, and was married to Andolino.
If anyone with a LaMonica background accessing this website is curious as to whether you may be related, it will help you to know that Calogero LaMonica, the father of all these immigrants, had six brothers! Therefore, if you have traced your family roots to Santa Caterina Villarmosa, from anywhere in Sicily, it would not be too far fetched to believe that your are family!
Some parts of this site are still under construction, so check back often to see the progress.
Check out our various links to enjoy the total "LaMonica Experience". There's the family Photo Album to view pictures of LaMonicas past and present (or to help you remember that name you just couldn't place at the last reunion--don't worry, we won't tell.). Then there are the Family Tree and Family History links to trace or read about your roots all the way back to the motherland. Check out the Biographies area to find out what family members are up to, Stories to get the "dirt" on events past, or Family News/Current Events to get the latest "scoop". To stay in touch, refer to E-mail Addresses or "get together" with the family in our Chat Room
on Sunday evenings at 8:00 pm ET. There's even a Family Web Sites link.
And finally, for information on the upcoming reunion click on Reunion Info.
To submit suggestions or provide assistance, please e-mail Donna Lea Saunders.
