Iacono from Ragusa

[mamacat]

Hi, I am looking for A Rosario or Salvatore Iacono b. 1891 in Ragusa d. 1944 in USA who married a Concetta Mazza b. 1896 d. 1967. Concetta had a sister Rose and brother Guiseppe. I am at a dead end, These are my grandparents and none of my living family has any information except what I have written here.

If anyone has any info, I would appreciate it
Thank you

Hi and welcome to the forum,

Are you saying your grandfather's name is either Rosario or Salvatore? Did he have any brothers or sisters? Where did he first settle when he immigrated? Do you know if they married in Italy or the US. What are the names (and birthdates) of their children?

Sorry for asking so many questions, but the more info we have, the better we can help.

yeah, what she said.....

Questions, questions, questions... that's what genealogy is all about....

Who, when, and where - perfect together.... best to give some details of the generation you know most about... then you (and we) can work back with some form of fact... so who were their children? names, approx date of birth?


Let's start here, do the names of these children sound familiar?
