Wow, you sure have done a lot of research. I'm not a family history buff, but I'm curious as to whether my ancestors are in your chain. I am Vincent James Gerace. My father is Vincent Carmen Gerace and had two brothers, Pete and Philip. Their father and mother were Salvatore and Natasha Gerace from Sicily. I don't know the exact spelling of the town they were from but it's something like Coccamo, or Caccamo. Do any of the above persons fit in your chain?

Vincent - I don't know if they're related or not. We'd have to research.

Sam Geraci - Phila Barber
Looking for information on Sam Geraci who was married to Rose Lodata, my grandmothers sister. Other sister was Josephine Lodata. Sam had two sons, Philip and Peter. My grandmother married Joseph G. Scafidi and moved to Bay Saint Louis, Mississippi. Uncle Sam was a barber in Philadelphia. Used to visit Mississippi during 1950's. Any info appreciated. Carlo

Re: Sam Geraci - Phila Barber
His proper name was Salvatore, (I thought his name was Samual too for a long time). He had two Sisters that I know of, Josephine and Stella. We visited the August Scafidi family in the 50's (My dad's aunt STella was still alive) and again in the 70's when I was stationed at Keesler AFB, MS. I attended the University of Southern Mississippi with Jerry Scafidi. He had three sons, Vincent, Peter, and Philip. I am Philip's Son. MY dad had a son bye a previous marriage with my grandfathers name, Salvatore. Coincidentally, We both live in central Florida. I didn't even know about him until early last year. My Uncle Vince is still alive and living in the house where my Grandfather died at 97. Can provide more information. Vincent Gerace's son, Vince has done some research on the family tree and can also provide information. Philip Sr. and his brother Vince were estranged since the 1940's, so I don't know that much about the family. Please E-mail me. The Scafidi's were always very hospitable to me and my family and I remember them fondly.

Re: Sam Geraci - Phila Barber
Just sent you an email response before I read this. I am first cousin to Jerry Scafidi. I am from Bay St. Louis, MS but now live in Jupiter, FL. Stella was my grandmother and I believe a sister in law to your grandfather, Salvatore (Sam). I remember getting free haircuts when he was in town. Do you know of any Scafidi relatives in Philadelphia?
