I am searching for the hometown of my G-grandgather, Antonino Agnello. He arrived in America on 4 Jun 1888, the ship was the Alsatia. He was born in 1849, in Vicari, we were always told. Wife's name was Nella maybe maiden name LaBarbera. They had 3 children before they immigrated, Jenny, 1882, Sadie, or Mary, 1885, and Thomas, or Gaetano, 1886. Haven't found Agnello's in Vicari. Other possibilities of towns could be Baucina.
