And further on it says those young people will be prepared to. One discussion focuses on the word "fully.". I don't think that ...

http://dribera.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 28, 2009. Saturday, the day after Christmas, I received in the mail two envelopes from the town of Scordia, in the province of Catania, in Sicily. The envelopes contained the birth certificates of my paternal grandparents. Actually they look more like extracts from their birth certificates, confirming what I suspected of their dates of birth and the names of their parents. If I pursue Italian citizenship jus sanguinis. Sunday, December 27, 2009. Welcome to the story. Standard and other v...

http://dribera.blogspot.com/2009/12/she-was-barely-sixteen-years-old.html
Tuesday, December 22, 2009. She was sixteen years old. She did not even sign her own passport. She was accompanied by a 38 year old laborer named Giuseppe Liggerio.

What was this 5' 3" fair-skinned sixteen year old Sicilian girl thinking? How did she spend her time on the 12 day voyage? Did they sail to America with their families' blessings?
