My mother's parents came here from Italy and I have no idea from precisely which area. I looked into it years ago and found it very difficult to trace. None of my siblings were interested back then in learning any more about it.
Hmmmm, thought the name Boogie was Bulgarian - never would have guessed Scotch!
