Hi Dick
Yes, my Great, Great Grandfather Guiseppe "Joseph" Sanfilippo married Lucia Corso, probably of Trabia.The Sanfilippos were from Trabia.Lucia Corso would have been born about 1840.There is evidence that Lucia may have died before the Sanfilippos came to America.
Our Sanfilippos came from Trabio to San Francisco about the same time your Corsos came to San Francisco.
And more coincidentally, there is a tale in the Sanfilippof family of a scandal of an extramarital affair and illigetimate children.
One of my aunts used the scandal to base her fictional book on.The title is Addiu Bedda Sicilia, Good Bye Beautiful Sicily.The author is Geraldine Villaba.
