Bilello ancestors/relatives?

Post by Nette »

Hi, I am seeking information about Carlogeone (sp?) (possibly Calogero)Bilello (14yrs age of emmigration) and Anthony/Antonio Bilello (approx 12yrs age of emmigration), two brothers who immigrated to the US in the mid-1800s. The rest of the family is reported to have remained in Caccamo or Sciacca Sicilia. I am seeking this information for Italian Citizenship based on ancestry. Sorry for the ambiguity, my dad's pretty foggy on our history! Any help is GREATLY appreciated!!

Grazie!

Thank you! I've been able to find additional information on a geneology website, but I'm not sure how accurate it is.

Here's the info:


Calogero/Calegro/Charles Bilello (Sciacca Sicily Italy), US Census 1930 shows him at 52 yrs, born in 1877, married to Mary/Angelique Bono Bilello (immigrated from Italy, no further info), 44 yrs, DOB 1885. Census shows citizenship for them 1891/92 respectively. How do I get additional information? I can't find ss#'s, or any other info. Their children were Andrew (1911), Joseph (1913), Josephine (1915), Carlo (1917), Lester (1919), Make(this is probably a mispelling of some sort) (1921), Antony (1910 or 1909), Philip (1908), Vincent (1906), and Nora (1904). The census records reflect Lafourche Parish, Louisiana as residence.

Maybe this will help other people as well. (hope so anyway!)
