 I need your help. Please send any family photos you would like added to the family genealogy. Email them to tpepitone@aol.com A short bio would be also great to include with the picture. I am also adding information to the FamilySearch.org site which is a free ancestry site... Please include information on an individual that is not listed and any corrections. Thank you.

 I will also provide 

back any information that I may have. I have been moving the family information from the ancestry.com site to family search.org which is a free genealogy site.

My current research on Familysearch.org

Look for a common ancestor. It's free and you can also add to it. Thanks


 

 This site is for all Pipitone and Malfatti families to connect with each other. Feel free to Email me at TPepitone@aol.com to place photos, stories, genealogy links, family recipes, reunions and any other family items that you would like to share.

Of course, Ancestry.com has a lot more pictures and birth records on my family tree there. It is called The Pipitones from Oakland California.

That link is:

If there is any interest in a family reunion, please share your ideas or if you know of a reunion, please let us know. Thanks Tim

Pipitone

 

Italian (Sicily): from Sicilian pipitone ‘hoopoe’, hence a nickname for someone thought to resemble the bird in some way. The term could also denote a stone-built figure used as a target by children, and so could have been a nickname for someone who was a regular victim of local children’s taunts or persecution.
