in reply to a message by Lepic
Thank you so much! Where did you find that?
Any infirmation on how they got to Italy, or anything about their history?
Occitan. I have no idea why I hadn't thought of that.

Quézel is in Morlet's dictionary of French family names. There are a few Quezels in Italy but the name is definitely not Italian. There is a record of someone named Anna Quezel from Sorrento, which is not far from Naples, coming to the US in 1930. Could that be her?

It doesn't sound like her, but I'll keep looking.
