There was a Nicolas and Vitoria bellotti too, do you think it could've been them from Calabria?

You mean that this Nicola and Vittoria also lived in Kenosha?

Yeah, both of them lived in Kenosha. Can you maybe research more into it, or at least help? I don't know much, for personal reasons in my family. But through an old city dirctory, I could locate a connection with a son, Raymond. So I'm pretty sure these are who my long lost relatives are.

[Tessa78]

I searched for a Vittoria/Victoria Bellotti in Wisconsin, but did not find anything.
Are you saying there was another MARRIED COUPLE named Nicola and Vittoria?


I have also been searching for an arrival manifest for Nicola Billota who I believe is the Nicola that Is on the WWI registration above. The age is right...

Here is a 1905 ship manifest for the arrival of
Giuseppe Bilotta, age 35, farmer from Roccabernarda, going to Kenosha, WI, to his brother-in-law, Salvatore Montmurro.
Traveling with him are his SON, Nicola, age 11 (putting his birth about 1894).
Also with them is Giuseppe’s brother(?), Silvestro, age 13 or 18

Thank you very much so far! I just have a few last questions.

If you have an ancestry.com account, when did Raymond live in Saint Paul? What about Armand?

http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse. ... c&uidh=000

When are all of these records for Raymond from? Does it appear he moved back to Wisconsin after living in Minnesota?

And can you see if harry bellotti was married in the 40s? To see if I could be a decendant of him?

This is most likely my last question.

When you posted the following:


U.S. Public Records Index, Volume 1 about Raymond R Bilotti
Name: Raymond R Bilotti
Birth Date: 5 Oct 1924
Phone Number: 336-1343
Address: 3301 Coachman Rd, Saint Paul, MN, 55121-2820
[1925 Bonnie Ln, Waukesha, WI, 53188-4776]
[1315 Franklin St, DE Pere, WI, 54115-3519 (1988)]

When it says

[1315 Franklin St, DE Pere, WI, 54115-3519 (1988)]

Does that mean that he lived in minnesota in 1988, or does it mean that he moved to de pere in 1988? Enlighten me. Does it not say when he lived in minnesota?

Does that mean that he lived in minnesota in 1988, or does it mean that he moved to de pere in 1988? Enlighten me. Does it not say when he lived in minnesota?

This public records index for RAYMOND Bellotti seems to identify the De Pere address for the year 1988. That would be my assessment.
It does NOT indicate a date for Minnesota...
