CARUGNI | CARUGNO

Carugni, practically unique, should be the product of an erroneous transcription of the surname Carugno, which has a stock in Sulmona nell'aquilano, San Salvo in Teatino and Pescara, a stock in Isernia and one in Rome and Castelliri in frusinate , and that should derive from a dialect nickname referring to the locality of Colle Caruno in Teramo in Abruzzo, probably the place of origin of the founders.
