My great grandmother Ampilila (Longoni) D'Angeli, at her home in Oakland, CA,
probably around 1930. Ann was my paternal grandmother, Irma's, mother.
She was a "mail-order" bride whom my Great Grandfather, Pietro, sent for
after after establishing himself in the US. Ann was born in Italy, in 1881.

Despite the somewhat severe expression on her face in this and other photos,
my father tells me she was a very soft, warm, loving person.
