Search for Giuseppe Russo
This is the information I have.
Born 27 Dec 1884 from Balestrate Birth Certificate (certified)
Born Date on Passport 28 Dec 1885
Parents: Gaspare Russo, Marianna Vitale
Unknown other siblings
On Birth Certificate shows first wife Pietra Vitale married 16 June 1910 in Cinisi
She apparently died don't know where or when
Married my Grandmother Grazia Palazzolo on 18 July 1914 in Detroit MI
had children Gaspar, Maria, Rosa, Frieda, Fillipa, Anthony
On Giuseppe's passport it shows him leaving Palermo on 31 March 1910 it shows his residence as Cinisi. Shows going to New York.
I have his Birth Certificate, Marriage Certificate, Death Certificate, and Naturalization record.
I am trying to find his entry into the US and where he went.
Maybe a census record.
The only record I can find in Ellis Island is arrival from Cerrasini, Sicily on 3/18/1910 but this does not match the passport. Also I do not know any of his siblings names The above record shows he was going to his brother's Pietro Russo in Detroit. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Search for Giuseppe Russo
Again thank you both. I am learning more each time. Thanks again
Re: Search for Giuseppe Russo
One more question. I have been unable to find any information on his first wife Pietra Vitale. The manifest showed he was married but I do not know when or where she died. The reason I am asking is because I might have to get a death certificate.
Re: Search for Giuseppe Russo
Since Giuseppe and Pietra were married in Cinisi, it's likely that Pietra was born there. Since you know their marriage date, you could request a copy of their marriage act as well as Pietra's birth and death acts from Cinisi. The marriage act should be easy enough for them to find with the exact date and if I'm corrrect, the marrriage act should list a reference to Pietra's birthday.
