Garofalo Family Genealogy Forum
  
My greataunt,Calogera Bruno, married Gennaro Garofalo in Italy. She was from Calascibetta, Caltanissaro in Sicily. He came to the USA (St Louis, Mo) in 1909 and she followed with their 3 children in 1915. The children were Carmela (age 20), Michele (age 16) and Giovanni (age 6). Her two brothers also came to the USA and it would seem logical that they went to St Louis to begin with. Her half-brother, Giuseppe Di Venti (also known as Benedetto Di Venti) emigrated in 1909 and stayed with her husband in St Louis. He was drafted in the 1st World War and died of illness in the UK before seeing action. We don't know if he married but he would have been about 25 years old when he died so he might have. Any info on any of the above would be useful.
