That would be her maiden name. I believe women, even today, go by their maiden name in Sicily (Italy). So he must have died before 1907 and she came alone. It's possible

It could be either way. I'm not sure. He said he arrived in New Orleans in 1899. He was married in Morgan City, LA in 1905 so its clear that he was in the states at that time. I have no idea of the ship. Could never locate him

I have no idea. What you found is very interesting. I believe my great grandfather did live in Patterson for a short time.

No, as far as what I was told Leoluca La Rizza came with his brother Guiseppe (Joseph). The family had no information on Joseph. I had a copy of the 1910 census and from there they moved to California. Leoluca Cutrone and the other Leoluca are two different people. However, they would have been ...

The passport application for Leoluca Cutrone was for the uncle of Lucia Cutrone. It is not the same man as Leoluca La Rizza (Rizzo). Leoluca and Lucia were married in Morgan City in 1905. Every document that I have states that he arrived in New Orleans in 1899. that could be incorrect but it ...

don't you think he would be on a passenger list of arrivals in New Orleans? That is what I have not been able to locate. Maybe the records have been destroyed

Leoluca and Lucia were married in Morgan city, LA in 1905. so it could not be this person who arrived in 1906

No, I didn't get that. Only the naturaliztion application

I got his naturalization papers from the National Archives. Lucia came with her family when she was a child.

Is there a way I can email you the naturalization papers to assist you

I could email you his naturalization papers if that is possible

Yes, you have the right person in Tessa 78. That is my grandmother and her husband. Now finding the arrival form is where it's difficutl.

Leoluca married Lucia Cutrone in Morgan City on July 22, 1905. That's one way I knew the person was not the same one. He states on his naturalization papers that he arrived on October 25, 1899 to New Orleans. I have recently learned that the original name was Leoluca La Rizza and apparently was ...

That is the wrong person. He said he arrived in New Orleans and this man landed in New York. Leoluca said he arrived 1899

I am trying to locate the arrival on October 25, 1899 in New Orleans. Looking for Leoluca La Rizza who was changed to Rizzo. Can you help me
