LOOKING FOR INFO ON GREATGRANDPARENTS

[DianeSMeng]

This is all the info I have so far - Antonio J. (1885-1953) and Rose Cavallo Chimento (1882-1934). Not sure what part of Italy they were born in, unfortunately. They did come to the U.S. eventually. Thank you for whatever you can get for me. Their daughter, my nonna, made meatballs with raisins in them and her name was Helen Saltarelli (married) but born in the U.S. Grazie! Diane

Oh my goodness! Thank you sooooo much Tessa. This is remarkable. I didn't know any of this info. Grazie! Have a wonderful day.

[Tessa78]

Is the location of the marriage (NY) correct?

Do you know what kind of occupation Antonio had?

Grazie Parker! It's so cool to read the documents. I wish I had actual photos of my family but they have been really hard to get.

[DianeSMeng]

I'm not positive Tessa. There's no one left in my family to verify any of this but I think my nonna's father was Antonio and they named a son Anthony and I think her mother was Rose so it looks like they're my great grandparents. I don't know what occupation Antonio had. Thank you Tessa.

Rosaria Cavallo, born 3 June 1882 in Galdo, Salerno, to parents Francesco Cavallo, 30, and Maddalena Di Iorio.

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903 ... ction=view
Aligns with 1905 arrival date from 1920 census.

There is a good start to this family tree that someone put together already on familysearch: https://www.familysearch.org/tree/pedig ... t/GGDJ-LB6

It seems like Antonio was probably from Sannicandro - these records are currently locked to an LDS history center to confirm.

Hi Diane.
Are you related to Antonio and Rose?
Rose Cavallo (Rosaria Cavallo) was my grandfather's sister. (so I am related to her)
She was born in the south of Italy near Salerno (Galdo degli Alburni).
I am very happy if I can help you

Best Regards from Italy

Vincenzo Cavallo

[DianeSMeng]

Hi Vincenzo! Yes, my Nonna Helen's mother was Rosaria (Rose) so we have to be related. This makes me so happy. I haven't been on here since June 2024. Thank you for responding. Helen was my dad's mother. Since they all passed away there's no one to ask where her family was from in Italy. Would you know if Rosaria lived in Calabria? Or, was it Salerno after she married? Grazie!

Thank you so much for taking the time to get this info for me. Unfortunately, I can't get into the bottom 2 you shared. I clicked on "Facebook" but nothing happens and that's the only way I could have connected to see the articles. Diane
