Thank you So much Tessa.
Just curious--did it really take a year to get the death date certified (date of Death 21 july 1904), recorded in NYC on15 Feb. 1905? And, Did it really take 11 years to get word to his family? Date recorded in Rapone is 1916.

Well, the last third of the record deals with all the officials and notaries that the record had to pass through, so the process was lengthy. The biggest gap in time was from 15 April 1905 (Italian Consulate in New York) and 21 March 1916 (Minister of Foreign Affairs in Rome)... This was to certify the record.

However, I do not believe it took that long to notify the parents/family.

I guess they did not have cell phones, email or Facebook to spread news like they do today. I am sure it did not take that long to notify family, but just seemed like a lot of time passed.
Thank you Tessa, I appreciate your help.
