If you want to know more about your Barino ancestor, you can contact S. Caterina civil record office, and request, in italian, her birth certificate, so you can know is right date of birth and names of parents

Rose: as it is possible that Mary, born in 1889, came again in USA, and also MARRIED in 1901... it was a baby! you sure about the birthyear?

Thanks everyone for your help.....all 3 Leonardo Pistorio's on the Ellis Island site are my same great granfather and all 3 give a different place of res........Mary(Maria) Pistorio was born in 1888 and came to the USA with her dad Leonardo Pistorio and her mom Augustina Barino/Marino in 1889 she was sent back to Sicily and returned to the USA in 1901 with her husband Joseph Quattrocchi(e)
the other chrildren Leonardo and Augustina had in Baltimore Maryland are Augustina(Augie),Joseph (my granfather), Angelina(Lena) who married a Leo Monfredo and Ann(Bunny)...
is there any way to see if Leonardo, his wife Augustina and their daughter Mary(Maria) entered threw the port of Baltimore in 1889
is there any way to see when people left the USA
Rose,
More clues in the census..
Do these look like they could be your family?
Do you already have these records?
Thanks! vj
