Surnames Sofia, Potenzano, Palmieri, Catuogno

Post by DonC »

Looking for any information about any of the surnames in the subject line. Sofia, Potenzano and Palmieri are all associated with Palermo and Termini in the late 19th C. Catuogno is associated with Naples and nearby San Rocco at about the same time.

The Sofias emigrated to Ellis Island in August of 1901 on the ship Sicilia via Naples. Unsure of where the Potenzanos landed, but suspect Boston.

I have considerable information about the Sofia's arrival, and would welcome additional info.

Looking for Potenzano and Palmieri from Sicily; Catuogno and Semiole from Naples or San Rocco.

Don,

These are all the Potenzano in the 1930 Census. I should say the ones with exact spelling. Maybe this will help. Sorry that I couldn't get it to line up straight.

This person is a commercial genealogist who charges people money. She is now in her recruiting stage to collect clients for a later date so that she can enhance her business. if she were truly concerned about furnishing free advice she would not advertise in her postings (look below her name).
