Looking for Falbo -- Luigi Falbo who married Teresa Rocca( may have used name of Maria). Teresa\'s parents were Pedro Rocca and Marie Tallarico. Luigi and Teresa had at least three children maybe more: Antonio Falbo born October 1887 Maria(Mary) born 1895? Elizabeth (Filomena) born 1897 They all died in Minnesota, USA Luigi was supposedly killed in a card game in Petrona Italy. Then Teresa got involved with Carmen Caligiuri and had Albert born in 1901. Any info is appreciated and welcomed
