My dad worked there from the late 50's to it's closing. I don't think I ever visited the Tyrolean room. But I did remember something else. I remember that the supermarket used to do giveaway's if you spent so much in the store. Naturally, that is where we bought our groceries and I remember ...

What memories I do have are sketchy, but I would be more than glad to share them. Unfortunately my father passed away unexpectedly in 1996 or I would be able to pick his brain.

The supermarket was located on 15th Street in Hazleton. The building itself still stands, and is now another supermarket ...

Here's a cool but rather useless fact. I am from the Hazleton area and many moons ago my Dad was an Assistant Manager at a Genetti's supermarket.

ohhhh..ok......I see what you're saying!!

Yep.....I am still living in that area and will most definitely go to the library to talk to them in person. I have searched Heritage Quest on-line through the library. I also found a local site on-line through the library, where people from my area help each other with research.....and to my ...

ok....dumb question. Can we assume that Caputo is a middle name?? I mean, the children and wife all had the last name D'urso.

I only recently got into genealogy. I started mostly because my mom turns 75 at the end of the year and I wanted to present her with a family tree of sorts as a gift. I never realized how addictive it would become.....LOL.

I thought it would be fun to see what other interests people have. Myself ...

Thank you!!

The ship was the Citta di Milano. The date was 9/5/1906 and the name was Maria D'urso

I have found more on www. href="http://www.jdoqocy.com/click-3166187-10456885" TARGET="_blank">Ancestry.com</a> than all the other sites put together.
I now it's not cheap, but they have more data by miles.
And you know there will always be someone lovely on this forum who will do look-ups if you ...

for genealogy research.....which would probably yield me the most results for the money?? Cash is tight right now.

I have to tell you...the more I look the more confused I become..LOL. I too, found a Mary D'urso that came through Ellis Island with her mom and siblings to join Mary's Dad. However.....that was in 1906, which is contrary to other info. BUT...their final destination was only a few miles from where I ...

Thank you

I am currently searching for immigration information on my great-grandmother. She was born somewhere in Italy as Maria Durso in 1882. It is believed she came to America before her first birthday. She married Frank George at the age of 15. They lived in Pardeesville Pennsylvania and had 9 children ...

That is a beautiful story!! And yes....maybe she did know and kept it to herself. I DO know that sharing that day with her made me feel like I was more dear to her than any of her other grand-children.


She was a treasure.

I did some more digging around. March 14th was the actual date of her birth. Oh well.....
