| Comments: | My Mom's maiden name is Torchia. Her family emigrated to New York from Francavilla, Angitola (Calabria), Italy in the 1950's. Her name is Catarina (Kathy). She has a brother (Vito) and sister (Vittoria; Vicky). My Grandfather's name is Vincenzo Torchia. He has one brother here in the states that I know of (Frank Torchia). He recently passed away; his children, grandchildren and great grandchildren reside in Florida.
I know my grandfather spent time in Argentina during this time, as I see quite a few Torchia's from Argentina here. We also have cousins in London, Ontario as I remember visiting them as a child. I see a couple of people here are from the Toronto/Montreal area. There may be a connection there somewhere. My grandfather and grandmother have since returned to Italy. I know there are many relatives that still reside in the town. My Mom goes back every year or so to visit. Great site!! |

| Comments: | Hi Mimi. I have been married 30 years to a Juliano whose Grandparents came from San Pietro Apostolo, Calabria, Catanzaro rergion ofItaly. His Great Grandmother was a Saveria Torchia who married a francesco Mazza from that town.Saveria Torchia's mother was a Lucia Talarico. Yhe Juliano 's came from the same town and was actually spelled IULIANO. There is another TORCHIA connection when Francesco married 1st wife, Maria Teresa Torchia, dau. of Tommasso and Rosaria Cittadino...his 2nd wife was my husband's grandmother Maria Mazza, dau. of Francscantonio and Saveria Torchis. ANYWAY!! We grew up in Toms River, NJ. Lots of people from San Pietro Apostolo (SPA) ended up in Long Branch, NJ and I'm trying to sort them out. I believe that both wives of Francesco Juliano were possibly Torchia cousins. I'd be interested in hearing from you. I just found the TALARICO connection when hubby John's cousin went to SPA in October and found the village and went to town records for me. We plan a trip in Spring of 2009. Do you see any possibilities? Cindi |

| Comments: | Hello.
My paternal grandmother was Anna Torchia from Catanzaro, Calabria. She married Antonio "Tony" Guzzo, also from Catanzaro. They had a lot of family in Pennsylvania, so they lived there for a while then settled in Woburn, MA. I believe my grandmother's family emigrated from Albania to Italy. I was very close to my grandmother and decided to change my name to her surname when I got divorced and gave up my husband's name. I'm proud to be a Torchia! This is a great website. Thanks. |

| Comments: | my name is Marcello Torchia and I live in Rome Italy. William Torchia was my uncle, my father's cousin.He used to live in Berkley 2218 Stuart Street. I remember very well him and his wife Rosina. We got together all the times he came to Italy. He used to write me and to send me comic strip from US as well as Italian journals published for the Italian community.
My grandfather Vittorio Filomena(my mother's father) who was a loyer, visited him in US and spend almost 2 years in Berkley working for William, then he went back to Italy. When William came to Italy, we have been together in Verbicaro at Vittorio's place. After he died I lost all the contacts with his family. Few years ago I was in San Francisco for vacation and I went in Stuart Street hoping to meet somebody from his family. Unfortunatly other people was living there, but they told me that Rosina was living in a rest home. I confirm that William was born in Verbicaro - Calabria |

| Comments: | This is strange, I have googled the name Torchia several times and never saw this site. I was wondering if anyone had a way to confirm my Grandfathers birthplace. I am going to Italy next year and would like to see where he went so many times.
My Grandfathers name was Guglielmo(William)Torchia. He was born August 29,1889 in Verbicaro, Cosenza, Calabria(Although I have seen a few articles on him where he claimed to be "Sicilian born.") He came through Ellis Island and was said to have sailed on a ship out of Naples. He took a train across the country with a couple he met on the ship. He settled in the San Francisco Bay Area. Now things become a blur. He was in business with A. P. Giannini and handled foreign exchange at the SF Bank of Italy.(I know they were friends because he used to tell me stories about them together and when Giannini passed away in 1949 he left my grandfather 2000 shares of B of A and also TA stock) As Bank of Italy could not make business loans, they opened a bank across the street from the SF Branch. I recall he told me it was called the "Bank of Stockton" because it was on the corner of Columbus and Stockton Streets. However, there is nothing I can find tying the two except a magazine article he told me was about all the Italians he set up in business. Grandpa helped many Italians get to America, has a plaque dedicated to him for helping save the S. F. Opera, set up many Italians in business, used to bring gobs of money to Italy about three times a year, and was known by many in the Bay Area Italian community. He lived with his second wife Rosina in Berkeley(near U. C.). He imported cheese, wine and olive oil from Italy. My Dad's name was Frank and I had one Uncle-August. My Mom's name was Angelina Bellasano. By chance does anyone know anything more about him? Especially, can they confirm the Calabria birth site. Ciao e Grazie |

| Comments: | Hello.... It has been really interesting reading all these Torchia posts. My grandparents, Antonio and Concetta Torchia came to the U.S. from Cosenza, Calabria around 1906. My grandmother Concetta's maiden name was Faselle. (sp.?) She was also from Cosenza. They eventually settled in Camp 42 (coal mining camp) in Columbus, Kansas and raised seven children, one of which was my dad. I decided to post something here because I saw a post listed on February 5, 2006 by "Don Ligon, Sr., E-mail address Ligon50@Hotmail.com". I tried to email Don Ligon but the hotmail email address was no longer active. If Mr. Ligon checks this website again, my email is listed. His grandparents Santo and Loretta lived next door to my grandparents Antonio and Concetta in Camp 42, Kansas and my dad knew his mom and his aunts. They were both families with the last name Torchia, but were not related. Suffice it to say the family history involves bootlegging and Torchias marrying Torchias.... but maybe you already know that. Feel free to email me. Wish I knew more
about the Torchias before they came to America. |

| Comments: | I never met my biological father, his name is William Nelson Torchia and apparently he passed away a few years ago. I am 33 years old, and he met my mother, Victoria, at a men's suit shop in Missouri in 1971. He went to the University of Ohio and law school in PA possibly? His parents lived near Miami Beach, FL. I know when he died he was married to Linda and he was residing in California. Any help with meeting family is appreciated, as I am an only child and my mother passed away several years ago. I was diagnosed with an iron defieciency auto immune disease 5 years ago, which my doctor said is prominent in families of european decent, Italians and Greeks inparticular. |

| E-mail address: | anjie_t@hotmail.com |
| Comments: | A BIG hello to ALL the Torchia's. Here I thought that my brother, me & a few of my cousins were the last of the Torchia line. Although there are different lines of Torchia's I'm sure that somewhere down the line we are all related in some way. My dad was Amerigo Torchia, his father was Bruno Torchia who travelled to and from Italy (Pittarella/Pedevigliano, Prov. Cosenza)to New York on a regular basis. Growing up we were told that he worked for the government but about 15 years ago I foud out that he was part or lead the Freemasons. In 1921 Nonno died while traveling to the US and was given a burial at sea. He left in the US his Daughter Alvira (who at the time was expecting her first child) and her husband Vincenzo. When Alvira found out about the death of her father she went into premature labour and died while giving birth to a little girl called Maria. Maria grew up and the last that I heard she married twice and both husbands died as a result of car accidents. Maria herself died a few years back in a car accident as well. If, anyone knows anything about Bruno Torchia's family I would love to hear from you. Kindest Regards to ALL Torchia's |

| Comments: | I think it is lovely that you have a website celebrating your family. I am a Torchia as well, from, however, Cosenza, and the family branch is a bit different. however, I would like to inform you that while torchio is a press 9in particular for wine), Italians are very particular about feminine and masculine endings as they mean very different things. Our family, which is known for carrying a blue-eyed gene, originates in Egypt where it is spelled Torkia (obviously when they immigrated to Italy it was changed to ch since there is no K in the Italian Alphabet). It originally meant people who were from Torkia or Turkey. While your family branch is different from mine, I do not doubt that the origin of the name is the same. I hope this is of help to you. If, by any chance you would like any translations of Italian documents, I would be happy to help you however, as I went to University in Italy and often teach at the Politechnico in Milan. |

| Comments: | My grandparents, Giuseppe Maria TORCHIA and Giuseppina MAZZA came to the USA in 1904; they were born and married in Calabria, Soveria Mannelli, Italy. My parents are Joseph William Torchia and Rosemary Edgar. My siblings are Barbara Torchia-Lozenski, Nancy Torchia-Pearlstein, Mary Jo Torchia-Boldt, Joseph Anthony Torchia, David Jerald Torchia. My father was in the USAF for 32 years and died 12-21-02. I have been researching my family names Torchia and Mazza for over 10 years. The TORCHIA name in southern Italy is very common, like Smith in the USA. My family is very large and we live in Texas, New York and California. |

| Comments: | Hello,
My great grandfather moved to the US in the 20's or so. One of his son's name was Ralph Torchia he died in 1960 a month after I was born. So, I was named after him, and was told he was a great man by my other grandfather who's name is Durante from northern Italy near abrutsia. I here different stories that my great grandfather moved to NJ or PA where the brothers his sons split up. Rumor is that a Ralph Torchia in PA who is a Doctor and is or was chief of staff maybe my Uncle. My grandmother was from sarsale I'm very much proud to be a Torchia! But we were moving all over the US as my dad John Ramo Torchia was not one to stay in touch with our family so everyone who could really help me has passed, and we were transferred all over the country and world. My father is presently assigned and working in China for Kodak even fter he retired he's been there going on 7 years or more. I would love to meet some of the Torchia family and maybe even cousins or uncles from my family from Italy. If you know anything or this sounds familiar I would welcome your corespondence. Viva la Torquia ciao, Ralph |

My grandparents Santo and Rosina (nee Naccarato)Torchia also came to Canada from Cosenza and we have been here ever since. I have way too many Torchia relatives here to list them all (my dad is one of ten children), but if you think that we might be related, feel free to email me and we will figure it out. Please visit my website and look me up if you're in the Toronto area. Cheers! |

| Comments: | Hello all of you other Torchia's,
I to was very surprised to see so many Torchia's out their! I am from Omaha Nebraska and we are the only Torchia family here in Omaha. My father John Sr. his brother's Jim and Joe are three brothers from James and Sarah Torchia. My great grandfather was from Calabria, Italy and a lot of his family ended up in the Chicago area. I travel a lot with the US Navy and frequent San Diego CA. I will be going to Iraq sometime after June 06'. I know that there are some other Torchia's in the Navy but I have never met anyone yet. I think it would be great to meet all of you someday. My father always told me if I met anyone with our name that was from Calabria we were related somehow. I would love to here from anyone in our huge family that seems to span the globe. Please feel free to email... "Life is an adventure, never live the same day twice" John |

| Comments: | I am married to Joseph Anthony Torchia II. His father is Joseph Anthony Torchia. My husband's fathers siblings are Nancy, Barbara, Susan, Mary Jo, and David. His grandfather is Joseph William Torchia who passed away in 2003 (I think). We were told that Joseph William came to the US from Italy. But that is all we know. My husband's father left him at a young age and we do not know any Torchia's at all. We are from San Antonio, Texas but currently live in Fort Hood, Texas. Joseph Anthony (my husband's father) still lives in San Antonio, but we have no contact with him at all. If anyone has any information about these Torchia's please email me. By the way...The name Torchia in San Antonio is absolutely unheard of. |

| Comments: | Hi All - My grandfather's name was Joseph John Torchia married to Leanne Inez Long. Most of our family is in the LaSalle/Peru, IL and Rockford, IL areas. Grandpa's brothers and sisters were Rosalie (Aunt Rowe), Henry (Uncle Hank), Josephine (Aunt Jay), Angela (Aunt Ange), and Uncle Nino - please forgive me if I missed someone. The parents were Rose Polizzi and Salvatore Torchia. Grandpa dies this May, so only aunt Rowe aunt Jay and uncle Peter are left. What an uproar there was when my grandpa wanted to marry someone who was not only not Italian, but also not a Catholic - Leanne was raised Baptist! Joseph and Leanne had five children - Linda, Terri, Joseph, William, and Lisa, 9 grandchildren, and 9 great grandchildren - with at least one more on the way. All are still living except Joey who passed away in 1995. Please feel free to contact me if you want any information on this strain of the Torchia legacy.
Leanne and Papa Joe owned and operated a gas station in the LaSalle Peru, IL area and then sold it to move to Henry, IL and open a restaurant and marina. They kept the restaurant for about 20 years and it was truly family owned and operated - I started working there when I was 5. Though grandma still owns the hotel, the marina was sold about 10 years ago. |

| Comments: | I am from Buffalo, New York. In Buffalo, we have a small group of Torchia's that settled here in 1904 when Joseph Torchia left Calarbia, Italy. One year later his wife Josephine Mazza Torchia and their son Bizellio joined him in Clarence, New York where they owned a small general store outside a mining quarry.
My father Leonard Torchia retired from the US Post Office and currently lives in Tonawanda, New York. Many of his siblings dispersed across the country, including Texas, California, Florida, and New Jersey. As of November 2005 Leonard had 3 sons and 2 daughters, 7 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren with his wife Mary Pera Torchia. Currently they are in their eighty something years. |

My knowledge of the Italian language is very limited and therefore could not understand his entry. I know my fathers side of the family, the "Spadafora's" all come from Sicily and I am told that there is actually a town in Sicily named Spadafora. My grandfather's name was Fred Spadafora and he had two sisters, Fannie and Rita and a brother named Michael. If anyone has any info on the family please contact me. Thanks so much!

| Comments: | I know some scant evidence of a Frank and Robert Torchia who eventually settled down in Savannah GA after their mother remarried to John Tarantino. It seems that both Frank and Robert (Robert was also known as Rocco)eventually adopted the Tarantino name, as it is on Frank's death certificate. Robert and Frank's biological father was Antonio Torchia. Their mother was Rachela Vetrano, and they all hailed from New York City before all but Antonio end up in Savannah GA later. Frank was born in 1904 and died in Savannah in 1980. If you have any information on this branch of the Torchia family or know of any leads, it would be greatly appreaciated.

Given up for adoption when she was 2 or 3. I have had contact with a women who may be her half sister. But she has since stopped contacting me. I think I may have scared her, but not intentionally. Anyway, if anyone has information on Joseph Torchio I would love to hear from you.
Thanks. |
