DiGenova (or Di Genova), Giovanni

Post by johndigenova »

I am new to this but am looking for any family history on Giovanni DiGenova, born 1866 in Italy and died in 1946 in the Philadelphia, Pa area. He was married to Guiseppina DiGenova (nee. Carfagno) 1874 - 1926 (born in Italy, died in Philadelphia area). They came to the US in 1892 and show on the 1900 census as John and Josephine DiGenova. Had several children: Cesaria, Generosso, Dominic, Vincent, Rose, Gennaro, Antonina, Angelina, and Alessandro (Alex).

Any leads at all would be great. Thanks in advance.
