Mingoia / Butera / Piazza / Di Domenico

Post by Misswinz77 »

I have been slowly piecing together my family tree. I can use some help. I know that my Great-Great Grandparents came from Sicily.

This is what I know about the Mingoia side: Antonina DiDomenico (born in 1875) married Salvatore Mingoia (born in 1874). They immegrated to the USA between 1913 and 1915 from Villalba, Caltanissetta, Sicily. They had 3 sons, all born in Sicily. Anthony, Gaspare and Samuel (Salvadore born 1902). Salvadore grew up and married Anna Butera.

Anna Butera's parents were Samuel Butera (born 1881) and Josephine (Giuseppa) Piazza (born 1886).

Samuel Butera's father was Guiseppe Butera (born 1849).

It is believed that Josephine's parents were Anthony and Rose Piazza.

I would love to learn more about my family but am unsure where to look at this point.

Salvatore Mingola and Antonia DiDomenico immigrated to New York on 12 Oct 1899. The ships name was Ems.They came from Sicily to Genoa . They were headed to Monogalola, PA where Salvatore's brother Antonio lived. The US Census for 1940 for McKeesport PA lists Antonia living with Antonio as husband and wife. therefore Salvatore must of died sometime before this census. Also another immigration arrival in New York took place on 15 July 1914 from Palermo, Sicily. Ship name was Taermia.
Children: Giuseppe B 1902 D 31 Dec 1903, Salvatore B 1902, Giuseppe B 5 Aug 1905 D 1905, Antonio B 1908. Information from Family search.

I was searching for Mingoia Naturalization and found this. Seems he moved to Cleveland at one point if it is the same Antonio Mingoia.

I have made quite some progress on every side of my family tree (going back to early/mid 1700's) except for the Mingoia side. I am still stuck at Samuel (Salvator) Mingoia b. 1874 and Antonina DiDomenica/Domingo b. 1875. They are my Great-Great Grandparents. They immigrated to the USA between 1913 and 1915 from Villalba, Caltanissetta, Sicily. They had 3 sons, all born in Sicily. Anthony, Gaspare and Samuel (Salvadore born 1902). Salvadore grew up and married Anna Butera.
