Cerami Tree

Cerami Tree

Classification: Query
Surnames: Cerami, Lio, Cavallaro
I was hoping someone could help me grow my family tree. My great grandmother Constantina Cerami (Concetta) was born in Petralia Soprana, Palermo Sicily in 1887. Her mother was Angela Lio born in 1865, also in Petralia Soprana. Constantina’s father is the unknown here. I am told that Angela Lio ran away and married a man that her parents did not approve of (I believe because of money/status differences in families). Angela and the unknown man had three children; Joseph (Born 1883), Constantina (my great grandmother), and Marianna (born 1885). All three children used the surname Cerami which would lead me to believe that Cerami was the surname of Angela Lio’s husband however her second husband had the surname of Cerami as well. I am told that Husband #1 died before he reached the age of 30. Husband #2, named Enrico Cerami (Henry - born 1876) was 11 years younger than Angela Lio. Angelo Lio, her second husband Enrico Cerami and the three children all immigrated to the United States before 1910. I was hoping that someone could help me identify who the unknown father is to my great grandmother Constantina Cerami. Once I identify the unknown father I would also like to find out who his parents were and if he had any siblings.

Just to give some extra information on Angela Lio's children; Joseph Cerami married Rose (surname unknown), Constantina Cerami married Angelo LiCausi, Marianna Cerami married Basilio Cavallaro. All 3 Cerami’s met their spouses and married in the United States.
