I am helping Ellen find information on her family of Gennario Catuosco from Paterno, Marsico Nuovo, Potenza, Basilicata, Italy. We believe he had 2 brothers, Luigi & Michele, both settled in Brooklyn, NY. It appears that descendants of Michele have posted in this forum abt 2006.
Gennario married Palma Conetta about 1888. We are unsure if this was in NY or Paterno since Settefrati is not near Paterno. We believe Palma Conetta was born abt 1869 in Settefrati, Lazio, Frosinone, Italy. Gennario & Palma had 4 children born in Italy (most likely Paterno); Michael, b: abt 1890; Nunziata b: abt 1894; Carmela b: abt 1898; Augustale b: abt 1900. Gennario appears to travel back & forth between NY & Paterno between 1889 & 1902. Palma & Son Michael appear to have accompanied Gennario in 1889. Gennario finally brings his wife and children to NY in 1902 and settles in Brooklyn.
Thank you
Gary
