| Anyone have Cernese sites? | I'm pretty sure our branch of the Cernese family originated in Palma, Campania, Italy. Thanks to Google Earth: 
Below is Janice Cernese & Concetta Cernese, born in 1915, still living in Palma. Concetta was friends with Grandma Chesira. She said Grandma used to visit Palma from Quindieci all the time. She is our Grandfathers neice. Her Dad was Anello.

Other random and unconfirmed findings. We don't know if they're related, but in Italy today...
- Vincenzo Cernese (Primo Referendario Estensore) is working in or near Naples, Italy. His work shows up frequently in google.
- There's Annalisa Cernese who was associated (perhaps also an instructor) with an Italian Dance Association and Not Only Dance.
- Prof. Claudio Cernese of the University of Modena
A long time ago... On June 1st, 1582 "master" Giovanni Cernese from Lugano, resident of Valperga, was contracted for the erection of the church of the Confraternita (SS. Trinità). |
