Hi Tim,
I noticed your Tarantino from Palermo and I'm hoping you might have a clue
about my ancestor Nicolo Tarantino.
We have no idea where Nicolo was born, but he eventually settled in New
Orleans and married Rosa Manfré from Ustica. They were married before 1867,
because starting in April of 1867, they were having children in New Orleans
including my Great Grandmother Catherine Tarantino.
From the names of the children, it's possible that Nicolo's parents were
Francesco and either Francesca or Caterina.
The only record of his specific origin is one Louisiana birth record where
the recorder gave his birthplace as "Cicillia (Palerme)". The rest all just
say Sicily or Italy.
Nicolo and Rosa may have spent some time in New York, but that's only
speculation right now.
The marriage apparently did not take place in Ustica or Louisiana, since
there's no record of it in either place. However, there were some Tarantinos
in Ustica around that time. I haven't exhausted the Ustica records yet.
There may still be something there.
We've exhausted the Louisiana birth, marriage, immigration, naturalization,
obituaries, and death records and still can't determine his origin. The
Ustica possibility is our last hope unless something like this email turns
up a connection. Any help or information you can tell us about the
Tarantinos in Palermo would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve Vizzini
Tim,
I saw a post of yours at Sicilian Family Tree. How far back have you been able to search your Pipitone family in Misilmeri? I'm doing my wife's genealogy and she has some Pipitones as direct ancestors: Maria Pipitone, b. abt. 1818, d. abt. 1871 who married Giuseppe Traina in 1839. Maria's parents were Angelo Pipitone and Rosa Agnello.

Timothy,
I am looking for family that came from Monreale, Italy. They came on the ship on the SS Montebello out of Palermo in 1897 and arrived in New Orleans. Their names were Vincenzo Piro, he was married to Angela Tumminello, they came with their three daughters and one son. A Michelle, Vincenzo, Salvatore Pipitore from Monreale were also on that ship and perhaps they knew my family. Any information would be gladly accepted. My grandfather was the one son.
Thank You,
Suzanne Piro
