Hello! If anyone has access to Census information, could you look up someone for me? I am looking for my Great-Great Aunt who died in Brooklyn in 1927 at 47 years old. Her name was Maria Santa Lategano (maiden name Virelli). She may have lived in NYC earlier, although I don't know when she came over ...

:D I am excited for you, Natalie! I was jumping for joy when I found out my great grandmother's maiden name...more pieces of the puzzle!
Happy researching :D

Thank you! It's nice to come here and talk about your research finds with other fellow "detectives" :) because some people just aren't ...

Today I received my Great- Great-Grandmother's death certificate. It listed her parents names, which I quickly looked up on www.familysearch.org. From that I learned 3 more family names! It's so exciting!! So here are the names I found out about today:
Pipio
Megale
Mastromatteo
all from Ferrandina ...

most public libraries as well as genealogy societies have access to Ancestry.com for free....which in my book is always a plus.....
wldspirit

Wldspirit,
Thanks. That's nice to know!
Natalie

Ancestry has obituaries, try searching for the names of any children born to them, the search engine will pick up on any name listed in the obit......you can then determine any family relationships.
wldspirit

Wldspirit,
Thanks for the tip. When you say Ancestry, do you mean Ancestry.com? I guess ...

Here you go Natalie!
You and Biff were correct.
Camilla is with her daughter in 1920
Please let us all know when you get stuck
again.
Valarie

Oh My Gosh Vj!
That's them! I wish there was a jumping up and down smilie face, because I'd use it!! Thank you so much, I am so excited!!
Natalie :D :D

Thanks Biff :D , but I forgot to give Natalie
the link to all the IGG databases.
You're right, if Camilla died in 1946,
and it appears she didn't remarry, she
is probably living with one of her children.
edit added:
Perhaps another son?
Paolo Giuseppe Virelli (joining brother Vito)
1903 ...

Valarie,
Great work on Camilla's possible death cert on the other thread.

From your 1920 census find, it might be a fair guess that Camilla's husband was Michele. Since Camilla's not living with Vito, I wonder if she's with daughter Caterina and family.

Best,
Biff

Biff,
I too think Camilla is ...
