Rosa Panni Guttillo---From Castledaccia Sicily to Chicago

Post by ellengina »

Trying to find any information on Rosa Panni Guttillo. She was married to Domenico Guttillo. Their offspring include: James, Jack, Carlo, Dominic, and Bernice Guttillo. Rosa and Domenico Guttillo arrived in NY harbor around 1895.

Their surname may have been spelled Guttilla.
Not sure if Panni is the correct spelling.

Any info is appreciated! 8)

Thank you for your help! Yes, Dominick Guttillo is a family member. In fact, I just purchased a copy of his death certificate from Cook County Records.

Hello, Kyle! Since I started this post, I have found quite a bit of information on the Guttillo family. My father is Joe Guttillo, your grandfather's brother. I will be happy to share my research with you, as we are cousins!

I'd also like to thank the other contributors who provided the recent information.

Dear Kyle, I have yet to find her actual death certificate. There have been many family members who were buried without actual certificates. If I find it, I will send it to you.
