PIE or Pursuing Our Italian Names Together In E-mail, is a website that has great potential but unfortunately there are many links on this site that are dead. I suspect that the site has been maintained on a regular basis which explains why so many of the links are incorrect. I know that addresses change and so do websites. The internet is always in a constant state of flux which keeping and maintaining a site very time consuming. If you have Italian genealogy, you might want to check this PIE out when you have hit a brick wall or have some time on your hand.
