Domenico Condino was my great grandfather's name...

[Cubby Condino]

I am looking for any information that I can find on my family from my father's side. My grandmother is deceased and it is impossible for me to find this information. All I have is my great grandfather's WWI draft registration card. I would like to know much more. Please help in any way that you can. Thank You

My great grandfather's name: Domenico Condino (Born October 8, 1891)
Place of birth: Guardia Piamontese Cosenzo Italy
He lived in Watertown, NY after coming to the United States

My grandmother's name: Josephine Condino - Later became Josephine Strickland through marriage.

She had several sisters and brothers, here are the names I remember(some may be wrong):
Rosemary, Carmella, Grace, Mary, Joseph, (I believe she had two other brothers)

My father's name is Robert T Strickland and I am Robert T Strickland Jr
