Looking for Lucy Calabrese in Naples

Post by Txbrandiwine »

I am at a complete road block looking for information on my great grandmother. The information I have is
Lucy Calabrese born December 13, 1893 in Naples area to Alexander Calabrese and Filomena Noble. Any information would be helpful. Thanks.

She immigrated to New York around 1900 and married Michael Solimine around 1906-1908

Could this be Lucia's 1904 ship manifest? Line 13. Age of 14 makes her yob about 1890 not 1893.

Biff, that is really interesting. Maybe she lied about her age on the manifest because she was young and alone. I am trying to tell what the name of the town says she is from.

The 1925 census also shows her birth about 1890:

This is the correct one. Her birthday is correct. I just need to find where in Italy she came from and the birth record.

So, she can't be the one Biff said, as that one was from Volturara, born Apr 1889, and mother's name doesn't match (I've checked her birth record).

Correct. I saw that. The search continues. It has been made super difficult by having a common name.
