I don't know if you're related to the Federicis who went west, Rich, but related or not, note that one of them not only lived a long life but also achieved a considerable degree of distinction:

In fact, you could even say he became a sort of "sachem"!
P.S. I know, we're all related, since according to mitochondrial DNA we're all descended from one woman who lived in east Africa many thousands of years ago. I meant closer than that.

I probably am, BW, but I couldn't pinpoint the connections. They would have to be fairly distant. My Federici grandparents were born here in the US - in Brooklyn - but their parents were all Italian immigrants. I do have a relative or two in Albuquerque, though.
Even here in Marion, NC, I get asked about other Federicis, most notably Danny Federici [deceased] who played with Bruce Springsteen for years, and the NJ Federicis who own Federici's Restaurant. Neither are known relatives. Of course, the Marion, NC phone book will shortly be FILLED with Federicis. A retired coworker of mine used to jab me with ... "you didn't have to take God's word to 'go forth and multiply' so literally!" |

Speaking of Federicis multiplying...I'd LOVE to hear "what's up" with your clan and recent pics if you'd like to share. For instance, what path did Christopher take after leaving ECU?
Sunday update maybe???

Hey GG!  Elaine will have me executed if I delve into my kids' personal stuff here publically. That's why there are no recent pics, though I may be tempted to sneak one in soon. They are all ok, though ... Second grandbaby arriving this Wednesday!!
Chris has had a tough go of it since his graduation in May, but he just landed a journalist job with this on -line politico: The International His first article appears Wednesday. It's a good resume builder!!
Love ya, Gal!
Ah, what the heck:
