Looking for relatives of Carmela Ilardo who married Salvatore La Russa. Both from Agrigento, Sicily. I assume she was born about 1870-1880. Her daughter Calogera LaRussa moved to Philadelphia in the early part of 1900 with her husband Guiseppe DiGrado.

If anyone has any information on the Ilardo family please e-mail me!!

I am looking at a geneology my cousin did in 1995. My great grandfather was Antonio Ilardo, born October 7, 1870, we assume in Palermo. He was married to Rosa Sangiorgi born Dec. 20, 1874 in Palermo. The later moved to Buffalo.

Their son, Anthony Ilardo was born May 25, 1898 in Buffalo. He married Maria Bordonaro. Her parents were from Bivona, Agrigento. They were Calogero Bordonaro and Antonia Amato.

All that to say, it looks as though we are probably distant cousins.

That sounds like my Great grandfather who came over to Buffalo in 1890. My grandfather was Joseph Ilardo. My great grandmother died in childbirth around 1910. I myself am from Buffalo, New York, too!
