Hello!
Here is what I know for sure:
Saverio Frank Costanzo
Born; August 22 or 23, 1884
Died: November 1967
Father: Saverio Costanzo
Mother: Mary Cafiero
Married to Mary Lauro in Brooklyn NY
Born in italy...according to the SS Application the city is Mata, however his daughter many years ago wrote that he was from Sorrento.
Entered US in 1888 according to the 1930 census.
I am searching for the following information on Saverio Costanzo:
1. How and when this individual arrived in the US -- I have searched Ellis Island and come up empty. I heard there is possibly another place through Canada that he may have arrived, but had no luck searching that database (cant remember the name).
2. Confirm where he is from and secure a birth certificate --
3. What happened to his father as he did not join them in US
I think those are my big questions today! I know he was on the 1900 or 1910 census however I stopped my Ancestry.com membership and lost them (was in tears that I failed to print it!!) On this particular census his mother, sister and brother-in-law lived with him and ran a grocery. The same grocery store he lived above until he died in 1967 which is pretty cool!
Thank you so much!
Cathy
