Gadotti or Goudotti

Post by christybristow »

I am looking for my great grandfather's family.
I know he came over with his brother in 1910, but it is possible he came over earlier as well.
His name was Luigi "Louis" Eugene Gadotti, born August 1894 in Trento and his brother was Mario Gadotti, born April 1891 in Trento.
I know Mario went back to Italy and came back with his wife and children in 1920.
The passenger list from 1910 lists their current town as Civezzano and their relative as father Viltoris or Vittorio Gadotti of Civezzano. The writing is hard to read, so it is possible some of the letters are off.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. My mother believes there are additional children and their destination was Weedville, PA.
My great grandfather married Matilda P Cuneo.

Thank you so much for the information on my great grandfather Gadotti! It means so much to me to have that information.
Everything we have shows his middle name as Eugene, that is possibly why I was having so much trouble finding anything. Also the change in the Cuneo spelling is why I cannot find a marriage record between my great-grandparents.
Again, thank you all so much!!!
