Ciao tutti. Molto grazie for all your help. Frank (Sr.) must have been drafted here in the States. I've checked a coupld of the fed. censuses but still do not have necessary info. on city of birth (in region of Palermo) nor any exact info on Frank and Rosa's parents names and their city of birth.

Thank you Ricardo for responding to my post. I am not familiar with an international reply coupon. Also, is it necessary that photocopy of my ID be in my surname? Molto grazie. pacha

:?: :?: Researching my grandparents: Francesco NICOLINI - 1892-1896, tailor, migrated to USA at about 21-23 yrs. old ( around 1912-1915 ?), from Palermo. Married Rosa SPARACINO, born 1892-1896, migrated to USA around perhaps 2 yrs. old, from Palermo. Marriage was in 1918. Port of departure was Le Ha...

ANTONIO 45: Which Sparacino are you researching? My grandmother was a Sparacino (Palermo), born 1892-1896, married Francesco Nicolini in 1918. Please contact me. Grazie.

Thanks for the clarification of the name of the town. I was racking my brains out trying to figure it out.

Hi again. Received a reply from this site but on forum researching: Cavellero, Nicolini, etc. Brujaojos / Trish mentioned it in the reply as "Lenacalle, Italy." I was confused and am anxious to find out the "real" city/town of origin. Thanks for your help. I need it.

Where is Lenacalle IItaly or Sicily)

On 1930 Census -- for naturalization it shows PA --- HELP!!!!!

1920 Census shows Francesco (Frank) as 23 and Rosa as 20?

Hi. Seems on 1920 US Census Frank and Rosa --- under column oc citizenship had NA 1918????

Where is Lenacalle --- cannot find it -- please advise (Italy or Sicily) Thanks

:) Hi and Thanks to everyone helping me. This latest info seems to verify all that has been posted so far. Since I am not a member of ancestry (can't afford it)--it has been really difficult trying to tie all the info together. Yet, this is who I am and my heritage. Yes a couple of the Nicolini boys...

Ciao. Mio nonno si chiamava Francesco Nicolini (nato 1892-1896) e' mia nonna Rosa Sparacino (nato 1892-1896) e' sposato 1918. Francesco emigrato negli Stati Uniti nel 1915 (?) e' Rosa emigrato negli Stati Uniti nel 1901 (?) de Palermo. Qualora Lei ritenga che possiamo essere imparentati, Le sarei gr...

Once again--thanks for the help on this research. Question? Since it seems that Francesco and Rosa were naturalized is it at all possible for me (as their granddaughter) to get dual citizenship? Or is that impossible since their children were all born in the USA after they became naturalized. Thanks...

:) Thank all of you so much for your help. I have been trying for some time now to advance in my research (Re: Nicolini & Sparacino). One big question was whether grandfather Francesco was ever naturalized or just filed a Declaration of Intent. And did Rosa (Sparacino/Sparanino) automatically be...
