Origin of Sabatino Surname

[smithpa1]

Trying to find city of origin of my great grandfather, Lawrence Sabatino, born in Italy. I have not been able to find any immigration records. He was married to Josephine Lapire, apparently after his immigration to U.S. There were 3 children, Lawrence, born 1900 in Italy, Marion, and Pauline, my grandmother.

Paula,

Have you found the family on US census reports? They will give you a year of immigration,

[smithpa1]

Can't find anything on census. A cousin said Lorenzo and wife were buried in Louisiana. My grandmother lived in Louisiana, her brothers in St. Louis. My grandmother died around 1930.

Thanks your help.

Sorry, you are right about marrige. Lapire sounds French, that's what threw me. I can't find the immigration records you mentioned, what port did they sail into? I found one Lorenzo landed in 1912, nothing in 1902.

Cousin said he was buried in Louisiana. My grandmother lived in Louisiana, died ~1930, young, brothers lived in St. Louis, MO area.

Thanks for information,
Paula

This is from a previous post. Is this census record that Wildspirt found your family? If so you have an approximate year of immigration.

I really don't know if this is my family. Does his wife or any children show up with him. That would be the only way I would know for sure. I only know that his son Lawrence was born in 1900 in Italy. I don't know where they came from, or where they landed. I know Lorenzo and wife's name through his son's SSN application, that I sent for. Surname spelling has changed, but that happens so often with Italian surnames.

[smithpa1]

Thank you all for the information, I have been looking for a long time, and am very greatful. You guys always come through.

Hi Paula, I think that in 1920 Lorenzo sr was died, why Giuseppina living with this Matteo..(Loioso?) most young; also about child's names, the word "step" before of "son/ daughter" could be means something....suanj

[smithpa1]

So you are saying that Lorenzo Sr. was dead by 1920 and Josephine was remarried to someone with last name Matteo, is that correct?

I didn't know she had remarried. I was told that in 1921 when Pauline married my grandfather, she was an orphan.

Interesting.

Thanks suanj

Paula: from direct reading 1920 census, are this family:
LOIOSO(or similar) Matteo-head-
...... Giuseppina-wife
Sabatini Lorenzo-step son
Sabatini Marion- step son
Sabatini Pauline-step daughter
