Sometimes, finding family information begins in a non-suspecting way! Flight attendant Raymond DiBiasi was having a discussion with his mother about the family lore of being Armenian since having Italian cousins living in Sicily appeared to be a dead issue according to his late grandfather.
Raymond’s grandfather implied that there were no relatives left in Sicily when he emigrated to the U.S. over a century ago. This discussion led to Raymond purchasing a DNA kit from Ancestry.com. However, the results were more than surprising! Raymond’s DNA showed only 10% Armenian but 90% Italian.
