RACCUIA, SICILY - CASELLA

[ToniCasella]

Francisco (b 1894), son of Salvadore (b. 1856), son of Antonino (b. abt 1826) Casella.
Looking for any information on any of these fine gentlemen. Family is from Raccuia (Raccuja), Sicily. Looking at microfiche, it looks like Antonino's wife's surname is Alogi.

Thanks!

Greetings . . I am noticing that the Casella surname continues to show up on a couple of shipping manifests with my ancestors surname which is Gullotti who is also from Raccuia . . I was wondering if you know of any ancestral relationships our families might have had . . you may contact me at ggullotti12optonline.net
