You should be able to request a copy of her death certificate from Summit County which might include her parents names.

Also,
Since records in Italy are kept at the comune, you could write directly to Naples for Vincenza's birth record (act)

Vincenza had at least one sibling, a sister Giovanna. Here's her 1920 manifest with her husband Angelo Zimbardi and her children. She's on line 15, husband Angelo on line 14 with children on lines 16 through 19. Not sure why the children are listed with the surname Zimbardo.

My Great Grandfather was named Dominico Grande. From his manifest at Ellis Island, he was from Teano, Italy and born about 1863. He married Francesca Bardini/Bardino. They had two children that came over to Ellis Island with their mother. Francesco "Frank" Grant was born around 1893 and Alessandro "Sunday" Grant was born around 1898. Dominick arrived in the US in 1903 and Frances and her two children came in 1904. I haven't yet found any family members past Dominick and Frances Grant/Grande. If you run across these names in your search for the Grandes', please let me know.

Thanks !!
Kathryn
