Hello!
We would all be happy to help
You may want to start your own post so your family doesn't get mixed in with another family.
(The new topic button is just below this post)
There is a family site for your Anthony Vaccaro on ancestry. com (with pictures) - but it doesn't have any records attached.
Do you have any of your US records?
Thanks! Valarie

Hi Valerie,
this is my family! My mother is Alba Terese Vaccaro. Also, we might want to note that my Uncle Charlie was christened Celestino (apparently after his grandfather) but changed his name to Charles when he joined the military.
The Hlubiks are cousins of mine; their mother is Laura.
I can fill in some information about my family.

Re: Anthony W. Vaccaro
Beth,
Zeroing in on Anthony Vaccaro's ship manifest from abt 1913 is a bit difficult. His name is not uncommon.
Most of us use this search site for NY Arrivals:
http://stevemorse.org/ellis2/ellisgold.html
Do you have his naturalization paperwork? It was probably in the Southern District of NYC, between 1920-1930?

Thanks!

Re: Anthony W. Vaccaro
Been helping another individual on a Santo Vaccaro, daughter of Giuseppe Vaccaro and wife Michelena. Born 1888/9 Bonefro, married Amodia Cappucilli from Ripabottoni.
Giuseppe is in Amodio's household in 1910 cenus in Ohio..Astabula if I remember correctly, along with Giuseppe's sons, Celestino and Antonio.
Town is Conneaut.
There was another cousin, Nicola Vaccaro, also in Ohio.
Believe that this Giuseppe might well be a brother to your Celestino...cousins among the children. Can't be sure.
Hope this adds more info for your search.
