This is the first time I'm actually portraying something that my ancestors actually did. My family is originally from Sicily and Northern Italy. Ill never know but there is a high probability.
I know how you feel Brian. My Dad's little spec of a town (Scigliano or ancient Sturni) is mentioned by Pliny and is built along the Savuto river and the Via Popilia. Legend has it that Hannibal himself crossed the Roman bridge at the bottom of the mountain. The town traces it's roots back even before it was granted Latin rights.
