I just returned from Pettorano today. It is a lovely village and the people were incredibly helpful and hospitable. They have a tourist office and they are very willing to help you search. I went looking for relatives of my grandfather and found several cousins. Check the Italian white pages--www.paginebianche.it Also do an internet search for "Pettorano sul Gizio" and you should find a link with about 35 photos. On one of the pages there is a list of surnames still found in Pettorano. You may also want to check the larger nearby town of Sulmona since many families moved there to find work. Good luck!
