if my find is ok, Pasquale Simonelli in 1900 census, must be a brother of your Angelo and Pasquale coming from Toro town, Campobasso province; the him oldest son was Gaetano/Guy Simonelli and was born in Toro (Campobasso province):

You are wonderful. All the information you gave me is correct and I appreciate it very much.
Do you have any information on Angelo's wife Benedetta Pillarella? I'm coming to Italy in September and would like to look up any of my relatives if I knew where any of them are currently living. Thank you so much for the information. You provide a great service.

by italian phone directory,
the SIMONELLI in TORO:

the PILLARELLA in Monacilioni:
http://www.paginebianche.it/ricerca?qs= ... onacilioni


and because you know the birthdate of Nicolangelo Pillarella, if you search in Monacilioni civil records by LDS microfilms:
https://www.familysearch.org/search/cat ... m%2F327271
you can know the parent's name and to search also Benedetta birth record ( same parent's names of Nicolangelo... obviously..)

ditto for Simonelli in Toro:
