Thank you for visiting this section of my web site. Although I have gathered information on our ancestry as far back as the early 1700's, I decided to begin with Francesco and Maria Teresa Lotito, the "pioneers" from Altomonte, who left their homeland with the hope of building a brighter future in the United States.
This starting page displays information on my Great Grandparents, their children and their children's spouses. It is available to the public in hopes that other "Lotito Historians" visit here and contact me to share information and possibly find links to other relatives. The pages that follow, however, contain information on hundreds of descendants. These pages are private and only available to relatives who have obtained the user name and password required for access. If you are a relative visiting for the first time or if you believe our families are related, please click here to send me a message or request password information.
I plan to research as far back as possible for more information on our ancestors. If you can help, please contact me. I appreciate your comments and input on improving this site.Family members, click below to continue:Enter Family Pages
