You sent me info regarding the Cataldos. Since then I have been going crazy trying to rectify the mother of Luigi, Ernest Michael etc. In the back of my mind I feel you are correct that her name was Maria Dello Russo. But for the life of me I don't know where my uncle got the name "Itana Bruno". And again on the info you sent me you have Luigi, Ernest and Antonio but not Michael and Angelo. I just went through some old records and I made a notation from a ships manifest regarding Angelo that his destination was to see his brother Luigi. I hate having "loose ends" I would so appreciate it if you could help me clear this up
Thanks

I seem to have the info you may be looking for. I do have Luigi, Ernest and Michele's mother listed as Maria Gaetana delloRusso born 17 November 1838, (14 children total). A kinship report does not show her or her husband Domenic related to any Bruno's. (Bruno is a name also found in Chiusano)
Angelo's name appears to be Giovanni Angelo Raffaele Cataldo (B:24 Sep 1880 D:6 Jul 1908) Jim Celata

My grandmother was Carolina Picard (married name Dello Russo) She came to Boston in 1902 at the age of 22. She moved to Malden, MA in 1917. She had a brother Louis. Could my grandmother Carolina be the daughter of Raffaele & Caterina DelOrfano Picard?

Thank you for the response. I like to have info comfirmed by a couple sources and what you gave me helps. I do not know why my grandfather (Michael Cataldo, brother of Ernest and Luigi)had on his death certificate listed as his mother's name "Itania Bruno". My oldest uncle gave the info, my grandmother was alive so I always thought it was accurate. Since I wrote the message I have been able to varify the mother's name as Maria Gaetana Dello Russo. Just FYI there were 23 or 24 children born to them, same mother and father, as the family says 19 were boys. No wonder there are so many Cataldos. By the way I have 15 names so far.
