Are you looking for an Italian surname? Do you need more information about your family heritage?
This is the right place to start your genealogy search.
The one I saw didn't have years of birth... the poster lived in Michigan... I was just trying to determine if it was your post, or someone you may want to follow up with...
It amazes me how they can come up with names, without anything to support it...
Okay, so we pretty much have found a few things... but not the buried treasure... The place of birth for both Canio and Teresa would be the pot of gold... Do you think they got married in NYC?

No I don't. However there isn't any info on their marriage in it anyhow. However, Ancona, the tree you were looking at before says that they were married Dec 10, 1896 in NYC. I sent out a request, just waiting for the document to be mailed to me if they find it. In 1896, Teresa was just 13 almost 14. Plus their first kid was born in 1898. So I am thinking the date is incorrect.
I assume she was born in Italy as the mother Margarete didn't arrive until 1886( as per 1900 census) and teresa was born in 1883. Her father, Pietro arrived in 1882. Couldn't find a manifest for any of them
