Parents of Catherine Giolitto b. 1871

Post by dsh0221 »

I am looking for records of the parents of my grandmother, Catherine Giolitto born Dec 28, 1871 in Pont Canavese Italy or Frassinetto Torino Italy . She died in Spring Valley, Illinois, USA on May 22, 1952. She had a sister, name unknown, who remained in Italy and had a brother, Barto Giolitto who immigrated to Rockford, Illinois, USA.

Thank you for any help you can give me.

Thank you sooo much! I believe Marie to be my grandmother's sister who we thought to have been left in Italy. Again, thank you. Catherine and her siblings were left orphaned when my nona was 9 yrs old so I doubt that I will be ab le to find them but I will keep trying.
