Fuschino/Arena/Fusina/Hooversville PA/Mafia/Tassi

Post by StMichael13 »

My great grandma's name was Rosa Maria Fuschino and her maiden name was Fusina. Her husband was about 12 years older than her. They lived in Hooversville PA and her brother who we called Buddy married Francis Arena whose father Rosy Arena was a capo in the mafia. My great grandmas mother's last name was Tassi. I am trying to find out info for on my great grandfather because we have paperwork on his brother Frank but not Dominick Fuschino. Anybody?

Thank you so much for the info.
I am trying to find out as much as possible about my great grandfather Dominick Fuschino for my grandmother who is 85. They dont know much. Any ideas on what to do next? I want to know where he went when he came from Italy and if anyone is still alive.
Thank you sooo much again!

We still have no idea of where Dominic Fuschino came in when he arrived in this country. He was married to Mary Fusina and did come to Hooversville but we have no idea how, what ship or how he got here. Could it be possible that he came over illegally and that is why there is no info? Thank you all for your help! I just want to make my grandma happy and find everything out about her dad

Dominic Fuschino had a brother named Frank Fuschino and we know that Frank settled in Philly but again my great grandfather Dominic Fuschino we have nothing on. He was about 12 year older than his wife my great grandma Maria Fusina.
