Abstract:
Angelo Fausto Vasquenz was born in Cerchio, Abruzzo, Italy, in 1879. He immigrated to Republic, Pennsylvania, in 1910, where he worked as a coal miner. He married Celestina Ciofani in 1913 in Republic, and continued to live in that community until his death in 1942. The collection consists of sixty-nine letters and one draft contract. Most of the letters are from Angelo's father, Antonio Vasquenz, who resided in Cerchio. There are also a small group of love letters to Angelo from his cousin Marietta Vasquenz, and three letters from Angelo's sisters, Maria Di Domenico Vasquenz and Pasqua Chichiarelli Vasquenz.
