Hello everybody, Im worried itll be a too difficult research, but Ill give it a try. My names Riccardo Russo and I made recently a big research about my fathers family tree. And I found a relative who emigrated to the U.S. in 1911, his name was Alessandro Russo, b. 1895 in Ginosa (near Taranto), father of 5 children, married with a Louisa (nιe ??), b. 1894 in Saviano (near Neaples), his occupation was barber, they lived in Brooklin. My great-grandfater, Gerardo Russo, b. 1875, son of Pietro Russo, a tanner, and Emilia Luisi, had this younger brother Alessandro. In family there was this memory of an uncle who emigrated a long time ago to the U.S., but none still living at the end of XX century knew anything about him. I found the Ellis Island register of his arrival, by the ship Duca di Genova, from Neaples and arrived on 25-26 Dec. 1911 to NY and even his petition for naturalization, dated 1941. The petition contains the exact names and birth days of his 5 children and the home address. Due to the fact that 4 of the children were female, so could be difficult to find the descendants now, but if any of them knows anything or is searching for some family roots, please pm me, I got info about these Russo/Luisi ancestors from Ginosa up to 1809. #AlessandroRusso #EmiliaRusso #MaryRusso #MargaretRusso #PeterRusso #AnnaRusso
