Hi maple 62,

Any chance that "Pierro" could be "Di Pierro" or De Pierro"? I'm researching Di Pierro/De Pierro in Armento, Potenza area.

Hi JC,

That's interesting as I have both a Nunziata Manzo (b 1809 & married Domenico Dalaimo) and Maria Tersea Diriso (b 2nd April 1866, daughter of Vincenzo Diriso and Margherita Mega) in my tree.

In England we have a community of San Maurese, and I know a Deufemia family. Their surname is spelt Deufemia and not D'EUFAMIA as you've spelt it. I also have a Deufemia in my lineage somewhere but couldn't find it when writing this.

Are the other names Morace, Floro/Flora, Scarpetti etc also from San Mauro Forte?

Hi jcsm,

I have a Prospera, Mauroantonio and Giuseppe 'Pierro' in my tree, who all originated from San Mauro Forte, Matera. Infact, my own godfather is also a 'Pierro'.

Sorry I can't be of any help on this one.

Michael.
