Need Info on Gaetano Canzoneri

[delliott7756]

He was born in Corleone, Sicily October 18, 1873. He departed to America 30 Oct. 1897 on the ship Victoria from Palermo to New York (95% sure). This is all I know, besides he married a lady named Rena, but he was single when he arived in New York.

Thanks,
Deb

Great find, suanj!
When I could not find a birth from 1873-1876... I suspected that the year was inaccurate.

Thanks Tessa, in meantime I see that on my previous post, I made a typo: the record is the #449 and no #441, sorry ... always in a hurry...
hugs,

Thank you so much everyone, good work Suanj, but I don't see the names when I pull up your link

[delliott7756]

Is Giovanni Battista name the church?

[delliott7756]

Nevermind about Giovanni name question

[Tessa78]

The link that suanj provided is for the civil record of the birth of Gaetano Giovanni Battista Canzoneri (his full name). It is #449 on the top left side of the image. His name is in the margin, and appears on the 12th line of the record.

The child was presented to the official, as suanj noted, by the midwife Francesca Paola de Luca, age 68.

Tessa, I went to link provided, I typed in 449 at the page #, but I do not see what you say

[delliott7756]

Will someone copy/paste to my email delliott7756@yahoo.com

[delliott7756]

It was the ships log and the U.S> Find a Grave that said his birth was 1873

[delliott7756]

Nevermind, I see it now, if it was a snake I would be sorry, LOL

Yes, I have a Family Search account, I just had to look very close to make out the name and of course I do not read nor speak Sicilian/Italian. I have been doing genealogy since the 1990's but still learning all the time. I always have to get translator's.

Thanks,
