Here is the manifest for Domenico. His last place of residence is actually Gibellina (Trapani, Sicily). It also looks like he is going to "father" Giuseppe in LaPlace, La. You take a look
The ship sailed from Palermo.

Yes, I agree...as I stated in an earlier post...he is going to "father" Giuseppe, so the 1903 manifest above is not his...Tessa78 wrote:Don't think the manifest for "brother" Giuseppe above is correct. Looks like he was going to "Father" Giuseppe...Here is a POSSIBLE manifest for brother Giuseppe in 1903 from Casteldaccia, Palermo, to uncle in Louisiana...

Tessa I believe you right abt ship's manifest; Domenico travelled with Calamias, and the mother of Ida/Agata Accardo, she was Vincenza Calamia...

You can request Dominic's SS application which will include his place of birth in Italy...
http://genealogy.about.com/gi/o.htm?zi= ... t/main.jsp
With his place of birth, parents' names, and his Date of birth, you will then be able to write directly to the comune in Italy for his birth record. This will give information about his parents, including their age and place of birth, and occupation. If they were born in same comune, you can then request their birth and marriage records to follow the family back in time.
Form letters in Italian for writing to the comune...
