Benjamino FARIOLI from Italy to New York City in 1796?

Post by sonata24 »

Hi. I am looking for any ideas how to find more information on my 4th great grandpa Benjamino FARIOLI. born about 1778 in Italy, and died in New York on 8 September, 1843? He came to New York in 1796 according to my brother.

His daughter was Theresa Fariolia BIANCHI. (I think Fariolia is the feminine form of the Sirname.)

1796 is too early for New York Passenger Records.

He shows up in the 1820 address directory as Benjamin Fariolius, artifical flower maker in New York City.

Yes, I accidentally posted the gedcom. I need more information so I can put more accurate information on it.

Also, I try not to use ancestry.com and other LDS sources so I don't have to change the religion of my relatives. (They changed it enough themselves.)

I think FARIOLI was Catholic but he may have been Presbyterian after arriving in New York.

Any potential relatives please email me. (I'm harmless.)

Hi Sonata,

Maybe you've seen this before, but I found an article from a newspaper called The Columbian; Date: 10-21-1815

Basically its a missing person report for a 5 year-old girl named Susan posted by her father Benjamin Farioli (who worked as an artificial florist on chambers st.)

I can post it here (if someone explains how to do it) or email it to you

thanks,
Mauro

Hey Mauro,

seems like you've found something here.
you can post the link to the article by
going to the address of the article in your
bowser... highlight the whole thing,
then right click on your mouse, click "copy".
then when replying on this board, paste it
by right clicking and pressing "paste"
that should work.

Possible 1840 Census for Benjamin Farioli

Listed as Benjamin Fariolia, 7th name from the bottom. Unfortunately, not much other information on the census page. Thus far, I haven't had any luck finding a record in the 1800, 1820 and 1830 Census records.

Household included:
1 male under 5, grandson?
1 male between 60 and 70, Benjamin
1 female between 20 and 30, daughter?
1 female between 50 and 60, wife?

Thank you. I never saw that article.

That tells me not only did Benjamin Farioli live in New York City in 1815, he also had a second daughter Susan as well as Theresa, my 3rd great grandma.

Thanks.

I'll find the article.
