Any help would be great.

When Calogero (Charles) arrived in the U.S. in 1909 the ships manifest states ...

What I have done so far is that I replied to the email from the Diocese of Nicosia hoping they will be able to forward my request to the parish. I did change the original email to include the Baptismal record as you suggested. Hopefully I will get a response.
