Searching for the biological family of a woman born in Turin‚ Italy on 26 May 1969 and adopted as an infant that same year by an American family. Before adoption she is believed to have been cared for at the Istituto Provinciale per l’Infanzia e la Maternità (IPIM)‚ the provincial infant home in Turin. DNA testing (Ancestry‚ MyHeritage‚ GEDmatch‚ FamilyTreeDNA) points clearly to Sicilian origins on both sides. Matching surnames include Anzalone‚ Palermo‚ Scarantino‚ Curatolo‚ and Gallo on one line‚ and Torregrossa‚ Cammarata‚ Di Teresi‚ Gugino‚ Plumeri‚ and Mistretta on another. The family may have migrated from Sicily to Turin for work in the 1950s–60s. We believe this may be connected to the postwar Italian adoption program that placed children of unwed mothers with American families. We are searching respectfully and with care — hoping to understand her origins and‚ if welcome‚ to connect with biological relatives. Any information‚ or any DNA match who recognizes these surnames‚ would mean a great deal. Contact me.
