Searching for Pietro Bioletto or family members

Post by casassa »

Just starting searching for lost family member that returned to Italy sometime around 1910's and never returned to US. His name was Pietro Bioletto. Any information would be helpful. He was from Northern Italy.

My mother knows of a Boletto family formerly living in Peoria, Illinois.
I would have to ask her, but the name I seem to remember is Joe.

Yes, this helps I am almost sure this is them. He lived in Ladd, Il for some time. There was a coal mine there. I think he was a miner. He may have come earlier and sent for them.

Thanks again,

Peter,
No I.m not in the business. I just started last summer checking family tree members. My mom passed away and left me pictures of Italian relatives I know nothing about. I may never know about them only pictures and a little history from Ellis Island. I was happy to find this site.

Hi Casassa,

Could he be Pietro Bioletto born July 16, 1884? I found a Pietro Bioletto in the World War I Draft Registration Cards and this Pietro was working at the Montreal Mining Company in Wisconsin. Also looks like he is living with his wife in Pence, Wisconsin.

I hope this is a help.

Pietro Bioletto was born 1869 somewhere in Italy. His wife and child came from Locana area so I need to search there for more info. Thanks again.

Peter Bioletto left US sometime in 1911 to settle family estate and never retuned to family again. They thought he died on ship or ship sunk. They don't know for sure. Any help would be appreciated. I don't know where to begin searching for this info.

Hi Casassa,

It's too much of a coincidence... that many Beoletto's from the town of Venasca (Cuneo), Italy, all went to the Ladd, Ill (well at least a couple that we know of...), Roanoke, Ill, and some to Cedar Rapids (Washington?) area... which isn't too far off either...

Aren't they all close by?

What if Peter Bioletto was a Peter Beoletto?... I've been looking, and in too many cases the same thing comes up .... Beoletto.... Venasca, Cuneo Italy... and Illinois...

I know that this Peter has given you a research challenge... but at this point... it could be worth checking this out further... there are a few Beoletto manifests out there... here's some...
