Frank Fiorino b. 1899

Post by MiaCarelli »

I'm searching for information on Frank Fiorino, who was born in Cosenza, Italy in 1899. I have found him and his wife Josephine (who was also his first cousin) in Brooklyn in the 1930 and 1940 Census records, along with their son John J. Fiorino, who was born in 1936 and recently died. I would like to find Frank's family, but I haven't been able to find anything further (he died in Brooklyn in 1979). Can anyone help? They are NOT the Frank and Josephine who lived in Kansas. Many thanks in advance!

OMG! Thank you so much, Tessa! Did I just make the mistake of not searching for "Francesco"? This is fabulous stuff -- I didn't even know they had the Declaration of Intent at Ancestry.com!
