I've gotten the reults of some research so here's an update- My g-grandfather Joseph Peter Santoianni (actually Giuseppe) was baptised with the "Greek Rite" in Lungro Feb 14, 1888- his parents were Nicola Santoianni (b 1860 d 1890) and Maria Giulia Cortese (b 1864 d. 1929).After Nicola's death in 1890 she married #2 in 1894- Dominic Solano in Lungro (he had immigrated to Pennsylvania abt 1882 and had returned to Italy to find a wife)- Maria Giulia and Dominic left from Naples Italy and arrived in New York June 15, 1894 on the ship "Iniziativa" and settled in Dunbar Twp., Fayette Co., PA in 1894.
Nicola's parents were Giuseppe Santoianna (b abt 1828) and Marta Frianni (b abt 1840).
Maria Giulia's parents were Francesco Cortese (b abt 1827) and Domenica Frianni (b abt 1840)
