Thanks for enlarging that census and the additional information. Speaking of which, I just got word from my father that John Staffieri had a brother named Dominick who passed away in either the late 1970s or the early 1980s. Which makes me wonder now if this 1914 John Staffieri IS my Grandfather or not because I didn't see a Dominick in that census. *scratches head*

Dominick could have married and moved away by the time this census was taken...remember John is 17 in it so Dominick may have been older. I found a few Domenick's in the SSDI..

Very good point, nuccia. According to my dad, that record for Dominick looks very probable.

Yes, my dad says that this is the one because years ago, 1996 or 97, he contacted one of his half-brothers through email asking about John, and they were both in Nevada.
