A few ship's manifests which were created in Naples identify some of the siblings as Caiazzo. All of the male siblings that were naturalized in the USA used the surname Caiazzo in the naturalization papers. One female sibling still used the surname Caiazza when married in the USA in 1914.

I have the birth certificates for my grandfather and all of his siblings. All were born with the surname Caiazza, and all eventually changed the surname to Caiazzo. I am certain this is the same family.

When they immigrated to America (different ships over the course of many years), some of the ...

Thank you for the information. Unfortunately I can't read Italian. Do you know when the town Caiazza changed its name to Caiazzo?
