Hello Markus,

at first I thought you could be right, as the name sounds
like "Hugenotte" (people from France expelled to Germany once).
But a quick search with Google and the word "genealogy" seems
to show an italian background. Here is a link and what I found
there:

http://www.antenati.org/pagine/siti_usa.html#Anchor-Risorse-8127

Galasso, Gambolati, Gammiero, Gargotti, Gazzolo, Gelardi, Gentile, 
Geraci, Giangiobbe, Giantonio, Giannantonio, Giannini, Giorgio, 
Giuffre, Gotta, Grasanta, Gronotte.

Prego,
