Ivo, aka "Ivan", Cofrancesco lives in Sidney, Australia, but was born in Egypt from Tullo Cofrancesco and Ida Caffarella.
I received his first mail on September 25, 1997. This is what Ivo wrote about it:
"Pacifico and I corresponded a few times. The most important news he had for me was that speaking with his uncle about our correspondence, his uncle remembered my step uncles as he had gone to school with them in Massa.
Pacifico said he was sorry but we were not related but he could definitely be able to find out where my uncles lived and supply me with their address and phone numbers.
What a wonderful find Pacifico was and I am grateful to him for having found a way for me to rediscover some of my family in Italy, thanks to him I got all the addresses and phone numbers that I used to make contact with them."
That's how we "met" (just vurtually till now) and that's how I found one
of my best "long distance" cousin and a great great friend.
