Antonio Caruso around Hudson, NJ Help!

Post by Superchick556 »

My great great grandparents are Salvatore Militello and Theresa Militello (nee Arabia). Both of them are buried in St. Mary's of Assumption Cemetery in Staten Island. Next to them is Antonio Caruso. I've never seen this name in my family tree, so I called the cemetery to get more details. They told me Theresa arranged the burial, but that's the only information they had. I literally have zero clue who this person is and I've talked to numerous people.

Salvatore Militello 1/2/1861 - 9/22-1924
Theresa Militello 1861-1957
Antonio Caruso Ago 12 1867-Did 22, 1924

ANY help would be appreciated!

I would like to help since I live in Hudson County. What city in Hudson County did your relatives live in? Also, what part of Italy were they from?

Not finding any with the date you posted... :-(

However, if one of these looks like a good bet :-) You can order the death record from NYC Vital Records. It should tell you who his parents were (though death records are notoriously inaccurate at times)
