The Region
Abruzzo
The Di Carlantonio family has it's roots in the Abruzzo region of Italy. Even today, region with the largest population of Di Carlantonio's is Abruzzo. My family specifically has very deep roots in the town of Montorio al Vomano, in the Province of Teramo
In order to better understand, or conceptualize, Montorio's history, it may be worthwhile to also understand the history of the Abruzzo region. A brief but rather complete history can be found here.For more complete histories on the Abruzzo region, please refer to Abruzzo History II and Abruzzo History III.
