ABOUT
OUR WEBSITE
Our mission is to document our family lineage as
completely as possible. The Quagliata family that originally formed
the basis of the genealogical listing we are developing is descended from
the two marriages of Mario Quagliata (1843?-19??), the son of Carmelo
Quagliata (1781?-18??) from Forza D'Agro. Since then, we have
widened the scope of our project to include all Quagliata lineages.
Over the years since we first published this website in 2001, there have
been visitors from all over the world. All Quagliata lineages sent in
by visitors are added to Richard's Chart,
which is a complete genealogical listing of the current state of our
information. The chart is a work in progress, so the
linkage of some of the lineages to each other may currently be
unknown. It
should be remembered that these listings are branches of the global
Quagliata family tree. Along with the genealogical information,
we present narrative stories of the lineages which provides very
interesting reading.
There is also information on Italian, Sicilian and Italian-American history.

And now,
a note about viewing photographs and other images presented on our website:
sometimes you will find an option to see a 'larger view'. You may
click the link or image, a new viewing window opens, but the image doesn't
look larger. The reason for this is that browsers can be set to resize
images to fit in the browser window and on some browsers, this is the
default setting. In order to view full size images, you may have to
change this setting or follow directions from the browser's 'Help' to view
full size images. In Windows, open the Internet Explorer, click on
'Tools', and from the drop-down menu select 'Internet Options'. The
'Internet Options' settings menu opens. Click the 'Advanced' tab and
scroll down until you see the 'Multimedia' settings. There you'll find
a setting labeled 'Enable Automatic Image Resizing'. Remove the check
mark from that setting box to turn off image resizing. Then click the 'OK'
button at the bottom of the 'Internet Options' settings menu. To check
this, click Mario's image on the left and a new window should open with an
extremely large (bigger than your screen) image. If the image is still
fitting in the browser window, and you are using a newer version of Internet
Explorer, move your mouse pointer to the bottom right corner of the image -
a small icon should appear which you can click on to expand the image to
full size. If you can scroll around the large image, then your browser
is setup to view large images. |
