I’m on a working vacation this week and a podcast I was on months ago reshared the episode I’m in and as a result dozens of people are contacting me for help with their searches and I am feeling a LITTLE overwhelmed

Ok yesterday I helped a fellow adoptee find both bio parents using only 23andMe results and very minimal info, no close matches or anything. Today another person I don’t know asks for search assistance, also has only tested w 23andMe. Perhaps it’s not as hard or as frustrating as it seems

Someone I do not know reached out to me with help with a family search request. Turns out not only are they from my hometown but the search involves the family one of my cousins married into and I’m marvelling at how truly small my hometown/the world is

Been quiet on here/online lately because I’ve been in Australia visiting my bio mom the last few weeks. My own search for my bio family is what got me into genealogy in the first place many years ago. I’m glad to have great relationships with both of my bio families even tho I live far from them. 🧬

Is anyone able to help me figure out what the bottom name in this picture is? It's the name of the mother of my 3x great grandfather. She's from Italy. The name above it is Domenico Pierini. Thanks for any help!
