If by chance any of your ancestors immigrated to the US, specifically the Barre, Vermont area for the granite industry, you might want to take a look at the following site: http://www.rootsweb.com/~vermont/VERMONTLATEST.html I have copied the 1905 Barre City Directory and it has been posted on this website in 10 installments. Scroll down through list and the first one you will see is V-Z - the beginning will be at the very bottom. Many, many Italians immigrated to this area to work in the granite sheds and many were sculptors.
