Remarkable Stories by CIAO member Michael Pedritti

 “Stories to read and share…. You shall smile to the infinite delight and mystery of life.” Michela Fanetti, Italy 

It is 1996. Leo, the youngest child asks his twelve brothers and sisters to write a short autobiography about their life growing up in a family of thirteen on the Mound Ridge farm in Genoa, Wisconsin. He encourages them to include events right up to the day they write their story. Remarkable Stories is the collection of those stories, providing you with a multifarious view of life in rural America between 1930 and 1996.

These thirteen stories about being raised in the same family on the same farm present a rare opportunity to see life from multiple angles. You will often read about the same event(s) told from different perspectives. Keep following the immigrant family saga. These thirteen are the children of Agnes and the grandchildren of Peter and great grandchildren of Giovanni Vener.

The addendum includes the male roots of The Mound Ridge Thirteen traced back to Northern Europe to the middle east, to Africa to Adam.
