Malito Italy ancestry

My great grandmother, Teresa Gagliardi immigrated to the US in the late 1800's(1896 or 1899). She travelled with her sisters I am told. She had one child born 2/23/1893 in Malito named Gaetano (Franchelli?) then 'adopted by' Mr. Priano after coming to the US. She had other children after my grandfather by the surname Priano. My grandfather resided in Geneva, NY, but I believe his family also settled in parts of Eastern PA.I believe my ancestry to be Gagliardi from Malito, and Franchelli of still unknown origin.
