Hey Biff !
NEHGS is a pretty neat New England membership, especially since they added more newspaper archives.

The Peterson's and Petersens really caught my eye, considering my grandmother who married Ernest Sr. was a Peterson. What's their relation in this instance? It's under the 1930 consensus. But it doesn't say how they were related.

[Biff83]

1930 census
Mary Liberatore, head of household 50, widowed
Attilio Liberatore, Mary's son, 24

Ah thanks a lot you guys! I've been filling in the missing info.

Also it doesn't seem Antonio's brother came with him on the ship. I'm wondering what ship Belesario took.

Martino Liberatore and Lucia Scopina Liberatore

[CarissaLiberatore]

I've found quite a bit of information since I've last posted. All of this takes place in Italy. If anyone has access to Italian records before the 1820's, I could use some help! (Date years refer to approx birth year.)

Antonio is my great great grandfather, father of Attilio Americo, of Ernest R. SR, of Ernest R. JR (My father)

Belisario (1852) is actually Antonio's half-brother (1867).

Antonio's father Martino (1823) originally married Belisario's mother (Angela Rosa Scopino (1829) then years later married the sister (Lucia Scopino (1832) who is Antonio's mother.

Martino's parents would be Belisario Liberatore and Maria Scoping. Birth years for Martino's parents are unknown. (Martino named his son by his first wife Belisario after his father.)

[CarissaLiberatore]

This takes place specifically in Pietraferrazana, Province Di Chieti, Abruzzo, Italy

[CarissaLiberatore]

Also, I would like to find out what happened to Belisario Liberatore's side of the family. He was Antonio's older half brother born in Pietraferrazzana, Chieti, Italy on 12 JUL 1852.
