First of all, I would like to dedicate this website to all the members of the  Barcia and DeLuca Families. I would also like to say thank you to all who have  helped me along the way. You know who you are, and without all of your help, I  would not have gotten as far as I did. Thank you very Much.

Let me tell you a little bit about my family.

My ancestors traveled from Italy to America at the turn of the 20th Century. By  1905, my relatives were making New York their home. Most of the family migrated  to Brooklyn, and some made their way to the Bronx. My Paternal Grandparents  were Thomas and Philomena Barcia. They were both born in America. Their parents  were born in Italy. My Great-Great-Grandmother, Josephine Burriesi Barcia came  to the United States in 1900. She was 51 Years old. My Great-Great-Grandfather,  Francesco Barcia, Died in Italy. I don`t have the time frame in which my  paternal Great-Grandparents came to America, but the guess is around the  1900`s. Great-Grandmother Santa Ranieri DeLuca came to America when she was 38  years old in 1900. Her Husband, Vincenzo DeLuca came to America in 1899. My Paternal Great-Grandparents were from Mezzojuso, a small town in Palermo,  Sicily. My Maternal Great Grandparents were from a town called Gallico-Marina. My Paternal Great Grandparents were Barcia and SanFillipo, and my Maternal  Great Grandparents were Ranieri & DeLuca.
 I have met many cousins along the way, that without this endeavor of mine,  would not have been possible.

I am the eldest daughter of Vincent and Barbara Barcia.  My Grandparents were  Thomas 
 and Philomena Barcia.
