Italian Jewish Surnames & Italian Jewish Villiages In Calabria - My Mom's Mother's Maiden Name Is Ferraro And She Was From Cosenza, Calabria

My Mom's Mother's Maiden Name Is Ferraro And She Was From Cosenza, Calabria.  My Nonna was a business woman who would help the community by reading their mail to them.  She was an amazing woman!  I'm so proud to be her granddaughter that is also Part Jewish too.  My Nonna owned her own land with a farm and would sell things at the market.  I'm a business woman too like my grandmother.  I sell things online!  I'm also a writer and photographer.
