Giorgi Family History, Wilmington DE
On Sunday, July 12, 2009, I videotaped "The Salvatore & Livia Giorgi Family History". A family history chronicles the life stories of a family. This particular chapter concentrated on the immigration of Salvatore & Livia Giorgi family to America from Italy in 1936 and then their life in Wilmington, DE.
The Giorgi family came to America from Italy in 1936 where 4 of the Giorgi siblings were born. The videotaping session, which began with a delicious brunch and extraordinary stories of the siblings remembering their lives, took place at Pete Giorgi's home in Wilmington .
The Giorgi siblings consist of 3 sisters and 3 brothers, Antoinette, Marie, Josephine, Joseph, Pete, and John. All were present and all contributed to what was a most wonderful day with varied stories, thoughts, and memories over some 80 years of life. Some of the stories included stories of their grandparents, the voyage of the siblings and their mother, Livia Giorgi, to America on the ship Conte de Savoia, their home when they first arrived in Wilmington, and many, many more.
The completed DVD will include music, still pictures, and the captured video from Sunday's taping session. A total of 2 hours of footage was taken. Two cameras were used - 1 for close up shots and the other for wide angle shots. Three different wireless microphone systems were also used - 2 Audio-Technica lavalier microphones and a handheld Samsung. The finished DVD will be approximately 1 hour and 11 minutes long.
