Where do you live? Because my maternal great-grandmother's maiden name was Colletti and I live, and so did she live in Lockport, NY (near Buffalo,NY). I know that she was born in Sicily.

You can play witht he different variations by inserting the surnames you like to see where they come from.

If you like, give us more info on your family (like first names and birthyears, deathdates, siblings, children, etc and we can maybe look them up to see if we can find more out for you.

Hope this helps.
