Yeah i saw that. that's interesting. so his dad was already here living on Queen. You don't know how bad i wish my grandfather (or even my grandmother) was alive. So many unanswered questions i have...
Thanks for everything Nuccia. BTW, is that your last name? are you Sicilian background too?

Salvati was my grandfathers last name...nuccia is just an Italian nickname. No, I'm not from Sicily but my parents are from Calabria.

If you like, pm me your phone number and we can chat since its not long distance. There are a few things I'm looking up to see if we can get some info through phone calls.

That's awesome!! Good job!
So...Giuseppe was in TO and his bro-in-law was coming for a visit and possibly a full-time move. I wonder why there's nothing on his sister Rosaria.

So i guess my grandfather had his grandmother Giuffre/Lacavera as his nearest relative because his parents were already here. That's sad Nuccia...for the first 14 years of his life he didn't have his parents.

I'll PM you my phone number soon. I'm at work so i cna't talk now anyway. ;)

This could be your Giuseppe...ellis has been acting up all week but I finally am able to view this manifest..

First Name: Giuseppe
Last Name: Giuffie
Ethnicity: Italian
Last Place of Residence: Termini, S. C. USA
Date of Arrival: Jan 12, 1911
Age at Arrival: 29y Gender: M Marital Status: M
Ship of Travel: Sant Anna
Port of Departure: Palermo
Manifest Line Number: 0014

Giuseppe Manifest Page 1

Page 2

Disappointing that it doesn't give his parents names although they were both alive when he left for Canada. Also curious since it says he was married but he listed his parents as the nearest relatives... :?

Try again..ellis island is acting up..I just clicked on it and it shows fine. If you are at work there may be a firewall?

What program areyou using? Just going page by page in the 1911 census for Queen St E...

If you like, send me your personal email if it still doesn't work and I'll send it there.

Can you copy and paste the url???

Or can you you imageshack or upload? These will link dirsctly from your files.

Here's the link for them..

http://www.uploadfile.info/

Very easy to use and quick but File extensions allowed: gif, jpg, png, bmp
File size limit: 1024 KB

www.imageshack.us

Links larger files but is a real pain in the neck...times out quite often. Try the upload first.
