Puccio/Fazio

My grandfather Antonio Puccio and Grandmother Vincenza Fazio Puccio came to America from Sciacca, Sicily. I don't know what year they arrived in N.Y., but they lived on Christy St. in Little Italy, N.Y. They later moved to Long Island City. They had daughters: Carmela, Josephine, Liza (Lizzy)and Gussie; Sons, Philip and Alfonso. I am seeking any relative who may have know them or are related in some way. My grandmother died before I was born, and my grandfather died in 1956. We lived in Corona, Queens, N.Y. at the time. I know there were cousins on both sides in the N.Y. area back then. Anyone have a connection? I had been trying to find out what year they came to America and on what ship. Thanks in advance for any info.

I am a descendant of Puccio's from Sciacca who arrived in NY sometime just before the turn of the last century. I think someone along the line married into the Fazio family. I'll have to confirm this with my dad. I am doing some research myself on Puccios from Sciacca, but there isn't much on the web. Hope you get this message because I know you posted four years ago.

Hi Mike, thanks for the message. I would love to have more information on your Puccio/Fazio family. My Grandfather Antonio and Grandmother Vincenza arrived at Ellis Island on July 6, 1906 from Palermo. They were from Sciacca. They lived on Christy Street in NYC. He later moved to Long Island City, N.Y. where he had a house. His brother-in-law was Philip Fazio, he married Anna Maltese. They lived on the same street in LIC. Philip had a son, Alphonso who maried Rosaria DeSimone, Colagero married Assunta Farroli, Antonio married Josephine (last name ?) and daughter Josephine who married Robert Arbitello.

This is some of the information of gathered from one of my aunts who is now deceased. In fact, all my relatives are deceased at this point and I have a hard time coming up with any new information. I have written to Sciaccia Comunale a couple of times requesting information and willing to pay a fee, but never received a reply. Please contact me at my e-mail address: Dotsgems@comcast.net. Looking forward to hearing from you.

By the way, are you related to Charles A. Pucie, Jr.? He responded to my message in Sept. 2000. But we did not think we had a match. Who knows!

Thanks again for responding.

Hi my great grand parents were Antonio porretta and Josephine fazio also. My grand mother is Angeline (jean) porretta block who was one of about 8 siblings. My grandmother knows nothing about the parents of Antonio and Josephine other than their birth locations (Sora and Sicily). I have some great info about the children and pictures of the family.
