Falco Family Trace

[Michael Falco]

My Great Grandfather was born in Poggioreale, Trapani. He came to America, but I don't know the date or how he arrived. I am looking for any and all information on the family name/names as I am planning to travel to Sicily in the next year or two and would love to discover the towns my family was from. Here is what I know:

Great Grandfather: Giovanni "John" Falco - Born in 1873 in Poggioreale, Trapani. Married to Rose Campise from Poggioreale

2nd Great Grandfather: Carlo Falco - Born in 1845 in Poggioreale, Trapani. Married to Rosalia Buttacavoli from Poggioreale.

3rd Great Grandfather: Giuseppe Falco - Born in 1811 in Poggioreale, Trapani. Married to Rosalia Salvaggio from Poggioreale.

Any information on these family lines would be appreciated.
