Hello: Have not visited this site for a while. I was in El Paso in November last year (2009) attending the funeral of my Madrina Josephina Andreani. I had a very short visit with your mother and your aunt Flossie.
Wanted to give them my address but they left too quickly !! I was there with Raul Navarro and his sister Nena (Hershkiwiitz) Navarro.
My Godmother, Josephina lived in Avalos for many years. I belive she was born there? Her mother was a dear friend and Comadre of my mother, Concepcion Young Catania.
You will see my grandfather and my mother’s name listed where you have names and address of those living in the residential area of American Smelting Company.. Mr. James Young and Conception Young. ( 1930′s)
