To italiangal1: A few minutes ago I posted a reply to a request about Emil Parque from
crbenford that you should read. It sounds as though your grandfather, Emil Parque, about
whom you are seeking info is the same person. He's my father Joe's first cousin.
Vincenzo Parque, your great grandfather, is my grandfather Antonio's brother. What
got my attention was your misspelling of the mining town in Arizona where these folks
ended up after leaving Italy. The correct spelling is "Morenci" and not
"Meranzi." Tell me what you want to know and I'll get back to you. What
I'd like from you are the details about the origin of the Parque name in Spain. My
information from a variety of sources says that "Porco" was the family's
orignal name and for some yet unknown reason was changed to "Parque." I'll
look forward to hearing from you.
