Hi!
Do you need any assistance with your US or Italian records?
Thanks! Valarie

If this is your Nazzareno‘s (Nazzario) ship manifest, he listed his last residence
and birth place as San Severo.

1910 manifest
pg 2

From Ellis Island

and from ancestry.com:
possible 1917 WWI Draft Registration Card
---

Some location possibilities:

San Severo, comune of San Severo - province: Foggia - region: Puglia
- there are currently over 25 folks with the surname Cannelonga living here

San Severo, comune of Cotignola - province: Ravenna - region: Emilia Romagna

San Severo, comune of San Lorenzo in Campo - province: Pesaro-Urbino - region: Marche

FHL shows Cannelongo exclusively from San Severo, Foggia, (puglia region) and one in New Jersey..www.familysearch.org under ancestor search.

The Cannelongo surname is not listed in the Italian surname dictionary as an Italian surname and is either local in origin or imported from outside of Italy. =Peter=

Cannelongo does not exist in Italy today. However the name Cannelonga does ( as vj and Peter have said) in San Severo. There are approximately 25 people with that name in San Severo. Here are all the Ellis Island records for that name. Is one of them your relative?
