David, just reread an old post of yours - welcome back!

Summary (I think):
- Only your g grandfather Rosario MORTELLARO went to US.
He travelled back & forth between US & Italy, died in Italy.
- Your g grandmother Rosa LA RANTA b 5 May 1867 in Sicily,
d 23 May 1933
(you have her death certificate, looking for translation on another post)
- Your grandmother Maria MORTELLARO b 16 Jun 1903
did not travel to US.
- Two possible locations in Agrigento, Sicily: Sciaccia & Lucca Sicula

You are looking for family information in Italy & other locations Tunisia, Morocco and Israel. (corrected)

Does this sound right ?
