My Great Grandmother was born in Montagano and her last name was Jacovino. They lived in North Bergen near Nanny Goat Hill like Rodney Marione posted. Montagano is right outside of Campobasso. I was there in Summer 2019

Only last year did I finally discover my biological mother’s identity. Her father, Thomas Campagnone came from Campobasso to the U.S. before WW2 and settled in Rhode Island. He married Mary Ida Trombley (nee Santos) who was born in the Azores. My paternal heritage is also strongly Italian and I hope to get to Italy after the pandemic clears. I would love to hear from anyone with knowledge of the Campagnone family in Campobasso.

My maternal great-grandparents were both from Montagano in Molise and I located family members going back to the 1600s based on a MyHeritage tree developed from a gentleman in Argentina with whom I share a common ancestor. It contains a few hundred ancestors and includes birth, baptism, marriage, and death dates for the entire extended family. Many residents of Montagano emigrated to the Pittsburgh area in the early 1900s and that is where I grew up. If you would like additional info, feel fee to contact me at edgrimmjr@yahoo.com or check out my MH family tree. It is the “Grimm Jr” family tree and it is public.

My great, great grandfather came from Campobasso, and became a farmer in North Bergen, NJ in an area called Nanny Goat Hill. My Dad was born in 1915 and his dad came here at 8 years old, with his dad, supposedly for better opportunity as my grandfather, once claimed. My grandfather, a prominent local contractor, died in an accident before I was born. My great, great grandfather, as an infant, was left on the steps of a French/ Italian nunnery in Campobasso and was given a French/Italian name, Marione. The only records we have were aquired by my brother on Ancestry.com. It was only , that we were from Campobasso. Unless there are Mariones in Campobasso, the family lore is inaccurate. I recently aquired all this information.

My family on my Mother’s side is in Campobasso. She left at 19 to marry my Dad. They met when he rescued her during an enemy attack in WW2. Recently, I went there to meet lots of cousins for the first time (thank you Facebook). It was a truly emotional experience and although born and brought up British, once there, I felt my Italian blood strongly. My family are also Palladinos!

My mom just told me my Di Lallo family is from there. They moved from Italy to Canada. Makes you wonder about the Canadian troops during WW II. I would love to visit this place.
