Salvatore Consolazione, of Rome Italy is the author of "Descendants of Giovanmi Consolazione" which is a major part of this web site. .It is quite obvious that he has spent a great deal of time in researching our surname "Consolazione" By surfing the internet it has been only a few years since my son Paul Consolazione has discovered the Consolazione family in Rome, Italy. My daughter Jane Pipia, who is very active in geneology, immediately contacted Salvatore. He has sent her quite a lot of information about the "consolazione" history. Putting all the facts together we found that our Grandfather, Ignazio Concetto and his great Grandfather, Giovanni, were brothers thus, making us cuginos. Ignazio Concetto and Giovani also had another brother named Giuseppe. Through the internet we have stayed in contact with Salvatore and his brothers and sisters. In fall of 2003 my wife and I traveled to Iowa City, IA to meet with Leonardo Consolazione who is the son of Ettore Consolazione one of Salvatores' brother, he was attending to University of Iowa, it was strange meeting a Consolazione that we had never met before, hopefully we will soon travel to Italy to meet Salvatore and his family.
