Christina Jorgensen, London, descendant of Vincenzo Caccioppoli

I am Christina Jorgensen and my sister has passed your email address onto me.

I am unsure where she got it from but as I have family in USA she thought I may be interested.

We are descendants of Vincenzo Caccioppoli who was born in 1874 (or thereabouts).

He is entered into the register in Vico Equense but grew up in Massalubrense, Sorrento. 

Please excuse bad spelling of place names.

He joined the Italian navy and on his completion of duty decided to emigrate to New Zealand. 

He bought an orchard in the Hawkes Bay area of the North Island and returned home where he married Angelina Coccurullo who came from Preazzano.

In 1912 he returned to New Zealand with a number of nephews from both sides of the family and became an extremely well thought of and innovative orchardist in New Zealand horticulture.

Vincenzo and Angelina had 5 children:  Giulio (who has 9 children) Rosa (my mother, married name Jorgensen and 4 children)  Elma (catholic nun) Vincenzo (6 children) and Maria (catholic nun ). 

Guilio, Rosa and Vincenzo are deceased but Elma is 82 and Maria 71. My older sister, Anne lives in New Zealand as does my older brother Bill, whilst my younger brother, Stephen lives in Queensland Australia, and I am at present living in London. 

We are all in our 50's. I have visited Oklohoma as my second son lives in Illinois and the first time I came to the States I did a huge trip on Greyhound and very much enjoyed going to Muskogee. 

I am a  nonna as well as my son married an American girl and they have a one 1/2yr daughter.  They live in a very small town out of Peoria called Williamsfield.

If you are interested in our NZ family----there are now over 200 of us I could get a lot more pertinent information for you.  My sister is the acknowledged family historian!!!! Hoping to hear from you in the near future

Dear Giuseppe, My Mother was born Rosa Elisabeta Margharita Caccioppoli in Hastings, NZ on 5 November, 1916 and died on March 8th this year.

Her Father Vincenzo Caccioppoli was born in Preazzano 1 October 1879, the youngest child of Antonino and Rosa Caccioppoli nata Aela.

Her Mother was Maria Angelina Cocurullo born in the same village.

My Mother was one of 5 children 2 brothers Giulio and Vincenzo and two sisters Elma (Sister Josephine, RSJ) and Maria Caccioppoli.

There is now a very large extended family in New Zealand, though mainly in Hawkes Bay where the climate is more Mediterranean.

I can give you a lot more information if you are interested.Regards, Adim and Anne Odogwu
