Giuseppe Orso from Candelo arrived New York 1903

Post by orsoch »

Hello Everyone, I am a newbie from UK who has only just found this forum.

I am trying to find out if Giuseppe Orso from Candelo, Italy and is listed as arriving in New York on 9th August 1903 aboard The Champagne out of Le Havre, France, aged 20 could be a relation.

I am researching our family tree and all I know is that 3 brothers left Candelo, Biella, Piemonte around that time. One went to US, one to South Africa and one came to England - my great grandfather - Quinto Orso.

I thought I found a reference to a death of that name in NYC in 1970's but lost the link when our pc got trashed.

I would welcome any news on that name or advice on how to proceed to find relations of that person and see if they can coroborate the evidence.

warmest regards,

Chris Orso

Hi Chris, Welcome to the Forum!
Do you mean this 1903 manifest (click here)
Giuseppe Orso was joining his father Serafino in NY?

Father Serafino Orso’s possible 1901 manifest
(joining a Giovanni Orso in NY)

Does this fit with your family?

Thanks! Valarie

Thank you all so much! what a response. there is plenty for me to digest.

I checked with my Dad but the names don't mean anything to him and all other family are gone, so I need to start digging.

Please can you advise how to proceed next? Do you have any advice on contacting records offices in Italy to see if I can tie Guiseppe and his father Serafino back to my great grandfather, Quinto?

My dad seems to think also that Quinto took a ship to the states in the 20's to visit his uncle, would that feature on a ships record somewhere?

I can't tell you how excited I am to have made contact with you and naturally a little sad that I didn't start my quest when I was younger (I am 48, my Dad Ray is 74, his Dad Guido died aged 50 in 1956) when the trail was warmer.

Do you have any advice on how I might contact a relative of someone who died in the US to see if they remember any family history that can tie it all together?

thanks once again,

Chris

I believe that you can see Candelo microfilms by LDS( Mormons).. Candelo is under Vercelli province on LDS website:
http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Library ... umns=*,0,0

http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Library ... umns=*,0,0

and this is the better thing, because so you can have all data.... and the genealogic tree back until you wish...
I cannot find a travel abt Quinto ORSO in the USA...... abt Giuseppe Orso, until 1930 it seem that had no more children, only the little Rosa in the 1910, in 1920 no Rosa are, so she can be died infant.... the better thing is to find a Giuseppe obituary, just for to know more... best regards, suanj

Hello
My son just stumbled upon this website when looking for some of our family history.
Joseph and Carolina Orso were my paternal great Aunt and Uncle. "Lina" was my grandfather's (Desiderio Perino) sister.
We have also been looking for information on when and how they arrived in America.
Although I was very young when Joe died, I have pictures and some memories of him.
My father and his brothers and sister may be able to shed more light on some of the family history. The information that they had a child, Rosa, is completely new to us.
Please contact me with any information you may have.
Thank you,
Carolyn Perino-Kovarik

I am writing to you upon reading your note. My family is from Candelo also. My great grandparents were Giovanni Scanzio and Maria Orso. My grandmother, their daughter was Adelina Rosa Scanzio.

I noticed with the family name of Orso as well as Rosa there may be relation to Maria.

Best regards

Hi!

I hardly ever drop by this web site and so was a nice surprise to see you had added some more mystery to the trail!

I am in London and with limited time to spend on this research. I had a nice exchange of emails with Caroline (see previous posts) but have still not found the time to visit the Mormon register in London to see what I can unnearth.

I have tried unsuccessfully to write to official bodies in Candelo but have had no reply :(

I hope your message spurs me to dig a little deeper this year.

Kind regards,

Chris Orso
