Grippe/Wara Ancestry
Grippe/Wara Ancestry
My 2nd grandfatherand grandmother were Egidio Grippe and Mary Joseph Wara. I believe they were from Laurenazana, Italy. I am looking for evidence of their emmagration information, or even if they did emmigrate to the the USA. They would have come sometime in the later 1800's to Utica, Onieda, New York. Any information would b appreciated. My great grandmothers name was Donata Grippe.

Hi Pippo!
This Find a Grave listing provides possible birth and death dates
It gives first name as Donato, but could be a misspelling?

t is my great granmothers information attached to that link. Thank You
Re: Grippe/Wara Ancestry
In Laurenzana, Potenza, the surname is spelled GRIPPO.
After looking at census records for Donata's brother Pietro/Peter (married to Theresa Bonamassa) in Utica, NY, his birthdate is between 1865 and 1869 (varies on each census) and his arrival is between 1885 and 1889 (again, varies).
Here is a POSSIBLE arrival for Peter Grippe (on this manifest as Pietro Greppi) in 1887. Unfortunately, not much other information on this manifest.

Re: Grippe/Wara Ancestry
Thank you all so much for the info, I saw transciption errors in the census reports. The name being Grippo and no Grippe makes perfect sense. I also saw one document that mentioned Maria as Wara? Vera, so that makes sense that her name was Verre. Also a ships manifest had Donata listed as Grippe Mc Donato. I was confused because she listed her profession as houswife, but was only 17 when she came over.
Re: Grippe/Wara Ancestry
Correction, the immigration info on Donata mentions that she Married at the time.
Re: Grippe/Wara Ancestry
Can you post the immigration information source?
You originally stated that Donata married with Alessandro Cinque (Ching) in 1896 in Utica. Yet, you state here that the immigration information mentions that she was married at the time of her arrival ???
What immigration information source are you referencing?
