Hello I was hoping someone could help with the name of the in country relative (brother) in column 11, Line 2 for Vittorio from this Ellis island manifest. This is the only place I've seen a sibling listed. They were from Langharino in Parma. I was thinking that the surname was listed first, so perhaps the first word is Menossi, but I'm unsure of the first name.
I attached the image below but this was the link from the ellis island site, but its more difficult to zoom in on.

Thanks!

Translation of Brother's name on Ellis Island Manifest
Re: Translation of Brother's name on Ellis Island Manifest
In column 11, there are 2 lines devoted to information for the passenger.
Since the passenger on line 1 lists "father" and Vittorio's line lists a ditto - I do not believe that this is the name of a brother, but rather his father in Langhirano. The first name was written (looks like Paolo to me) and the last name ( Menossi) was inserted between Paolo and Langhirano. Next line reads "di Parma, Italy"

Thanks Tessa! Finding this earlier Ellis record of him, I thought I found the sibling
Zooming in I thought the line below it was the one connected to him, I see it now I was off on the half line. Paolo makes perfect sense that was his dad. The search continues!
Thanks as always,
