Need birth information of my Grandfather - Angelo Vitale?

[cvitale]

My grandfather, Angelo Vitale came to Omaha, Nebraska (USA) from Sicily around 1912. He married Lucia Monaco in 1918 (Omaha, Nebraska) who was from Carlentini, Sicily.

I am trying to find out where my grandfather was born. His father's name was Angelo as well and his mother's name was Sarah Vitale.

My grandmother's parents were Gaetano Monaco and Angela Inzolera.

I know the year of birth is off from the census information, but could this be him?

For anyone one who may link the census, it's a two pager

Yes, this is the correct family and information. According to the 1930 Census, he was not naturalized when my father Thomas was born.

Your goal then is to locate the town of origin, and rather than duplicate research, could you tell us what records you have already located??

Otherwise posters will continue posting information you have already seen......

The records I have now is my grandfather's death certificate, marriage certificate, SSI Index and 1930 Census.

I still do not know where he was born, when or if he was ever naturalized. If he was naturalized, what date, etc.

Angelo Vitale
Born: 11/14/1894 (listed on death certificate as 10/25/1895)
Died in Omaha, Nebraska August 13, 1964 (Douglas County)
Married Lucia Monaco on April 20, 1918 in Omaha.
They had four children, Nancy, Joseph, Gaetano (Thomas) - which is my father and Antoinette. Nancy and Joseph are still alive in Omaha, Nebraska but are in ill health.

My father, Thomas Russell Vitale, died in 1994. My mother, Shirley Jean Vitale, died in 1999.

If filled out properly, his social security application will provide town of birth & parents' names.

Here is a link to request a copy of the application.

I am providing this only as a possibility......perhaps Angelo had family

I was born in Omaha in 1960 and lived near and attended St. Ann's Catholic School on 24th & Poppleton Street, and my mother's maiden name was Mary Joan Ciciulla. Her father's name was Francesco (Frank Ciciulla) He died in 1928 at age 34 and is buried at Holy Sepulcure Cemetary in Omaha.

According to my aunt, my great grandmother's maiden name was Vitale.

Her husband, my great grandfather's name was either Filadelfo or Frank Cicuilla also.

(I received the following info from the cemetary about my grand father yesterday:)

Here is the information I found for the requested name buried at Holy Sepulchre Cemetery.

SECTION N - BLOCK 1 - DIVISION SOUTH - ROW EAST - GRAVE 11
Francesco Ciciulla - age 34; born at Italy; died 2/23/1928; buried 2/25/1928 from St. Ann Church.
Cause of death: blood poison

I am trying to research my grandfathers family history and citizenship status prior to my mothers birth in 1927.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Best regards,

Dear cvitale,
if your grandparents got married in Carlentini, you can send a request, written in Italian, to have integral copy of their marriage record, to

Comune
Ufficio di Stato Civile
Contrada Rosana
96013 Carlentini (SR)
Italy

The spouses usually get married in the town of the bride.
In the original copy of marriage record there is written where your grandfather Angelo Vitale was born.

You can find this detail on the original copy of Social security number, and on his naturalization records
I hope it helps,
bye Riccardo

Cvitale,

if you are interested to do some research on you own, the Family History Library has microfilms of the civil records for Carlentini for the years 1820-1929 (births, deaths and marriages).
