Nicolo Canarelli

Since this isn't the address on his 1920 census, this may be the address of his saloon (liquor store)

So, I was looking on google for Nicolo Canarelli yesterday and i found this book that he is in - "The Origin of Organized Crime in America: The New York City Mafia, 1891 - 1931" I found that he owned saloons on Grand St. and Hester and Mott. He was part of the Italian mafia most likely, like i've heard - and i know he supposedly was gunned down in the late 1920s. Can anyone help me with some more info about this - I can't find any articles about his death or anything else linking him to the mob.
Thanks, Nick

Can anyone help with any information about Nicolo Canarelli's connections to the mafia, or any article about his death?

[jamiemslaton]

Would you mind if I ask what relationship you have with the Canarelli and Trolla family? It's just easy to gather info about them if they are residing in your area. But if not there are many ways to find person like knowing where they reside or search them through the web. That's what I'll do.

[NCJE2910]

I dont mind you asking. I am their great-great-grandson, Nick Easton. They're both dead, obviously, but they lived in Manhattan and Brooklyn, NY

[jamiemslaton]

Sorry to hear that. I thought you are not related to them.

[NCJE2910]

Its ok, dont be sorry - theve been dead since the 1920s, and i was only born in 1991, its not like knew them, nd i am related.

Hey guys, can anyone help me. This is about my great-great-grandfather's brother Francesco (Frank) Canarelli. All I know is he was supposedly born in 1886 in Agira, Italy. He came from Italy to New York in 1897 with his mother Gaetana Guinta, sister Maria, and brother Antonio Canarelli. I was wondering about his wife and children. He also supposedly was drafted for either WWI or WWII Thank you very much, I really appreciate it.

Thanks alot, and Im not only looking for Frank, any of his brothers and sisters too, or his mother; but is there any way to know if those marriage records are the same person as the manifest person?

... is there any way to know if those marriage records are the same person as the manifest person?

Hi!
I'm sorry, I added a couple of records while you were posting.
The only way to be sure is to order the marriage record(s)
