Hi,
My dad was born in Scanno, Italy. His mother, Maria Beatrice (Rossicone) married Pasqualantonio Gavita in 1914. Maria is the daughter of Gaetano Rossicone and Marianna Silla.
Pasquale, son of Angelo Gavita and Maria Egidia (Sero).
Maria and Pasqualantonio had three children Rinaldo, Maria and Angelo.
If anyone has any information on any of these people, I would greatley appreciate your help.

What type of information are you looking for?

The more information you can provide, the more accurate and faster you can get assistance here.

Found several GOOD possibilities at Ellis Island, although the year of birth is off for them (given your information) ...

There are other names (i.e. Maria) on this list with addresses in NY which might mean that they made several trips.

Got it ... I'll remember that next time ...

I get moving too fast sometimes and miss the little details (not little to someone that can't get the information) ...

[nuccia]

Don't be so hard on yourself..I used to do it all the time! I still go so fast sometimes that I miss things..I think we all do. We learn from trial and error and from each other, right?
