Colombo of New Rochelle, New York and Italy
I'm still looking for more info on my family from New Rochelle, New York.
May grandfather's name was Domenico Colombo and he was married to my grandmother Angelina Tinto.There was a name change along the way for my grandmother.From looking at the census, I am finding Tinchitella or Tinchitalla.They lived most of their lives at 129 4th Street in New Rochelle.I believe that they may have also lived on Layfette Ave for a little while.My grandfather worked for the city of New Rochelle and also did some work as a laborer.My grandmother's parents were Carmela De Vito and her father was Michele Tinto (Tinchitella or Tinchitalla) I have seen them listed on the census. I know that they had 3 sons, Nicholas, Samuel and Charles.On my grandfathers side, is mother was Maria Vaccaro and his father according to my grandfathers obituary was Matteo Colombo.Yet, I have not found anything about either one of them.I'm not sure if they even came to this country.The Colombo name was a very well known name in New Rochelle and I'm hoping that someone knew them and can share some information about them.
