John Liguori; 1910 - Dec. 25th, 1940 (Kings, New York)

Post by gliesian66 »

I would like to know who John Liguori from Kings New York's grandfather is.

Note: I think his father is Anthony Liguori (About 1878).

Is his grandfather Michelangelo Liguori? Note: Michaelangelo was from Troia, Foggia, Italy (About 1850 - Dec 1st 1887)?

If John is related to Michaelangelo, then John is related to me... this is why it's important to me to find out.

Note 1: Michelangelo Liguori had a son named Giuseppe Liguori (25 Nov 1879 - 27 May 1959); also from Foggia, Italy.

My interest: I have the card from his funeral... but I don't know the relation to me.

-- Thanks, Robert Liguori

Hi,
a John Liguori son of Anthony Liguori was born in Brooklyn in 1910.

Anthony Liguori was born in Troia (Foggia province, IT) on 15 may 1877;
John was born in Brooklyn, New York on 2 dec 1910.. Anthony arrival in USA: 5 sep 1906 Roma ship
Antonio Liguori petition of naturalization:

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/T ... :182167268
son of Michele and Grazia Viola

so this John Liguori grandfather was Michele..

Antonio/Anthony Liguori in 1925 census:

Maria Leonarda Lizzi (trip crossed)with little son Alfredo going to Giuseppe Liguori:

now if John Liguori (son of Anthony Liguori and nephew of Giuseppe Liguori, grandson of Michele/Michelantonio Liguori) died in 1940 I know not, but I believe correct...

Thank you for all of the information! You have proved than John is related to me.

Btw, the info you gave me on M Leonarda Lizzi is not in sync with what is on ellisisland.org. She did come over with my Uncle Alfred, she was born on Nov 14, 1878, she did depart from Naples on the Roma... but she ended up in New York, not Boston. I'm curious as to the discrepency and where you got your info... thanks, Robert

Hi,

Where did you find this information from (and do you know and more information about this event?)... can you give me the link to the actual document/proposed-manifest? Why didn't the ship sail, or why didn't they sail with the ship? Thanks, Robert

Was searching information for my family and came across your message. This John Liguori is my grandfather. He was my mother's father but passed away when she was an infant. We were close to his family and visited them often. Please respond if you need any info about them.
