Di Tirro Family from Gildone
Hello all,
In doing family research, I am looking for other possible ties or links to a Giuseppe Di Tirro, who came from Gildone, Campobasso, in 1891 and settled in Cleveland, OH (Little Italy). He was married, prior to coming to the US. His wife's name was Carolina DeCapua. She emigrated the following year, in 1892.
The started and ran a combination grocery/saloon/hardware store and bank (amazing--and all under one roof). In 1906, Giuseppe Di Tirro was fatally burned, when an oil stove in his residence caught fire. He passed away from his injuries.
I have been trying to see if he had any other siblings/cousins that may have also come and settled in the Cleveland area.
Thanks in advance.
Jeff
