My grandparents lived a block away on 7th Street, above a doctor's office, and my grandfather worked in a barber shop across the street. My grandmother would take me to Marshall Street for water ice.

Are you referring to my cousin Antonio Pisano from Milan and Gasperina? He is the first cousin to my grandfather, also Antonio Pisano. I went to Gasperina and met him personally. I would enjoy hearing a little more about you and your family history. The sister of my paternal grandmother married Gregorio Raspa. Thank you for responding.
