Thank you!!!

The Villalba for this family IS in the Province of Catanissetta one.... (confirmed since my grandma told me so! also "we're NOT ITALIANS!" ;))

Walston is in Punxsutawney, Jefferson County, Pennsylvania. Again, I could only figure that out since I know where her husband was living at the time (and ...

Oh... that could be it! That is, at least, a true surname that exists in Villalba, Sicily Thanks for the suggestion.

Line 237
Ellisisland says "Calogera Panspanto"

but ...

Our "Calogera" family members went by Carrie

Tonny just looks like Tony to me for Anthony or Antonio...

Annuciata could also be Annunzianata

Yes, I have those I can invite you to my myheritage site if you want to see what I do have. Thanks for helping.... I really appreciate it.

Again, you are amazing. Thank you so, so much. That photo (and those articles) will be very touching to my family. How did you find that site?

Actually, Angelo's record looks like a 38 and not 28 to me (or is that wishful thinking?) :) Thanks for the help on noticing that. You're a good detective! (Also, you combined facts from both of my topics on this board to contribute... thanks :))

I could order Biagio's SSN application and see what ...

The only Gaspare I can find is Gaspare Taibbi (with two Bs)... He shows up in 1920 and again in 1930, he is a bricklayer in Brooklyn listed as "Jasper" with a wife named Florence (which, I believe, is Providenza/Providence in Italian.) They married in King county, NY on July 22 1912 (Gaspare Taibbi ...

Biff--- WOW. I think that is it... everything seems to fit, except I didn't know of that brother at all..... That's very exciting. :)

Since he is traveling with a group from Licata (which is where he supposedly last lived with his wife's family,) but he was born in Racalmuto... I'd say it's ...

I cannot find immigration records for an ancestor.

Angelo Taibi was born on Mar 22, 1881 in Racalmuto, Agrigento, Sicily. He married Angela Cannizzaro of Licata, Agrigento, Sicily on Apr 26, 1908. They had a son named Angelo Paul who was born Jan 29, 1909.

He immigrated to Niagara Falls, NY before ...

Thank you so much!!

If anyone is able to read the main part of Angelo's birth certificate, does it say under what conditions he was left or found? I wasn't able to find those words... (I know it's pretty hard to read.)

Again, thanks everyone for their help.

Bonus info... the only Paolino Taibi I can find in Racalmuto records IS the son of a "Fedele" (who is the son of a Paolino).... (I have many of the microfilms checked out and some are indexed on familysearch.)

This Paolino is 14 years older than Francesco. I suppose that could be a reason the boys ...

another link for the first image in case the first doesn't work ...sorry for the trouble.... This is the ORIGINAL image I tried to post... of both boy's margin notes.

These two images are of the main content of Angelo's birth record. It is really hard for me to read since I am just learning to translate these... I don't know if anyone can pull anything useful out of it...
