My doubt about this record was because it gave Gaetana Cannizzaro's age as 9 months. Really she would have been 9 years old at that time. However, the second Ellis Island record you found would seem to support the idea that "9 months" was an error in the first record.suanj wrote:Hi, surely Rosa was born in Caltavuturo..
that by a ship's manifest, trip crossed, with little Gaetana Cannizzaro born in USA:

I searched these records from the beginning (1862) to 1870. (She would not likely be born any later, if she married in 1881 and had her first child in 1883.) No luck finding Rosa, although I did find a birth record of her sister, Calogera. Now I know there were at least three siblings.suanj wrote:The better way is to search in Caltavuturo civil records starting the search in 1865 births
