Hi Donna:
Wow, I am amazed! My great grandparents and grandfather, Peter Faes are from Lodrone, Italy!That much I do know. My grandfather also went there in the late 70's and my cousin Peter Faes also went to Lodrone and meet relatives.My grandfather passes away here in Syracuse, NY in the early 80's and my grandmother(Mary Puzzalo) passed away in Syracuse in early 70's.They had three son's here.Ben Faes (passed away at 25 years old), Peter Faes (lives in Central NY), and my father Richard Faes also lives here. There are many, many Faes's living in Central NY now.But I spoke to my Dad and he said his great grandparents came from Lodrone, Italy in 1906 and went to Tennesse.My grandfather was born here in 1907, stayed 5 years and they moved back to Lodrone.My grandfather moved to Penn. to work in the coal mines then moved to Syracuse.When you went to Lodrone did you see the Faes Monument in the center of town? I believe it is Fice or Fise in Italy.I am assuming Smith is your married name?What state do you live in?Any information in regard to where our relatives are besides Italy would be appreciated.
