learning more and more about my family. I have never been able to fine anything on my mom's, mother, Pauline (Abrizza) Scollo. She had two sisters that we know of. Lena, who came to America 1900-1910 then Pauline and Nellie came together with their families in 1910-1920. They all ended up in Chicago, IL. Pauline later moved to Cleveland, OH. I remember my grandma talking about Sicily and how beautiful it was. She missed it a lot. After moving to Cleveland, Ohio she lost touch with her sisters but missed them. Abrizza is their maiden name, maybe. It's on birth records spelled a little different each time. The photo left to right: Lena, Pauline, Nellie.My father's side, Walker, I have a few generations back. I need to work on my cous
in's marriages and children. Sounds easy but like grandma Pauline I lost touch with most of them and getting reconnected isn't easy. Some don't remember me from when we were young and some just don't have any interest in genealogy and don't want to be bothered. I have a lot of missing links. I think if they would be able to read some of the stories and see photoes it might perk some interest. You never know. I know I enjoy it.

Charles is my grandfather on my Dad's side. He's a teenage in this photo.
