    Paternal Grandfather: Eugenio Joseph Furlan Sr. (1914-1974) Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, was the son of Corrado Isadore Furlan and Ida Paoletti. Corrado was born specifically in Padua, Veneto, Italy.
    Paternal Grandmothers father Rinaldo Girini (1885-1969) was born in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy. His spouse (the great-grandmother) Ginevra Mari was born in Anacona, Marche, Italy.
    These are three Italian regions that Brittany’s ancestors belonged to.
