Gialanella/Caruso family

Post by springdal »

I am trying to find more info on Agostino Gialanella, born 22 July 1884 in Italy...not sure where exactly, but his son (Alfonso) was born in Guardia Lombardi. Agostino died
18 Dec 1969. His wife Antonia Caruso was born 16 May 1885 also in Italy, but not sure where. She died 4 Dec 1941. I know he was a tailor and traveled to the USA 3 times, once in 1904, again in 1905 and finally in 1909. Antonia and Alfonso came over in 1910. Any info on their parents, etc. would be tremendously appreciated. In fact, any more detailed info on Agostino would be appreciated too. Thanks in advance. :)

Is the Gialanella tree on Ancestry.com your?
I am trying to find more info on Agostino Gialanella, born 22 July 1884 in Italy...not sure where exactly,
On the tree there is a photo of the italian passport of Agostino Gialanella, it stated that he was born in Guardia Lombardi (Avellino Province - Campania region) no doubt on his birth place being an official italian document...

just for references, the 1920 census from Ancestry.com:

Thank you so much Laura, but I guess I was unclear. I know that info. That is my tree. What I wanted to see was if anyone might happen to have any info on his parents, grandparents, etc. The spelling above is incorrect; it is Gialanella. "Raphael" (Ralph) is my father-in-law. But thanks so much for your effort.
