to Giovanni Morena and Bruno Maria Carmela
he left Italy August 7,1911.

seeming the right family, but it are some discrepancies abt the children ...

however MORENA Margherita Raffaela( full name) was born in Marsico Nuovo on 29 jun 1896, daughter of Giovanni Morena( son of Michele) and of Maria Carmela BRUNO (daughter of Luigi); in the bottom, the marriage note: married in Marsico Nuovo on 5 March 1914 at Antonio Gallucci son of Teodosio Gallucci

Name: Margaret Gallucci
Birth: 5 Jul 1894

the birthdate is a bit wrong and by Florida deaths, the same person was born in 14 jun 1896
