I've been trying to find anyone alive related to my Dad, Carmine Diorio. You are his cousin... I grew up knowing your Mom as Aunt Genevieve (Dad's Aunt).

There is a wealth of info on my thread found here:

well, maybe this is your VINCENZO DI IORIO born the 1/1/1899 in New York in a trip back in USA:

Well this one is the right age, but he's a barber (not a tailor), and he had a wife in Italia (from Taranto Peligni)... hope it's not him!!!

; )

UPDATE:

I found another manifest entry for Vincenzo Di Iorio, which says March of 1924, port of origin=Napoli.

The manifest only seems to have the 2nd page, so it's hard to tell which one is him without the name.

I have ordered the marriage certificate from NYC for Vincent Diorio and Teresa DeMarinis.

Thanks to Raffaella, it was easy. ; ) Next is finding Vincent's birth record...

Hopefully between the two, there will be info about Vincent's parents, or at least how their names were recorded.

Ciao!

I just found a manifest from 1892 with both an "Angelo Diorio" (28 years) and a "Giuseppe D"Iorio" (22 years)... There isn't a page 2 on this manifest, so I can't get the other info.

Since Vincenzo (my Grandfather) was born in 1899, it ties in for either of these guys being "Carmine Giuseppe ...

Don't assume..its all speculation at this point. :lol:



Who knows what the name was changed to! I only posted it to show you the options. You still need to collect all records to confirm..

Get your letter written.

I just thought of something..

I was wondering about that too. I guess I could contact the Italian ...

Also, I must know what resources you all use. I haven't subscribed to Ancestry.com, or any other, because I don't trust them. But what you tell me what you use, then I must subscribe to.

The things you have found for me I could not find, before.

So per piacere, tell me what you use!

Grazie ...
