Hi,
I just fell upon your message in a random search! I may have some related information as I research my familys past. My Grandfather's name is Guiseppe Spina and he did come from Calabria. As I understand it, he worked for the Railroad and settled in Corleone, Sicilia. He had 6 children, one of whom is my Dad, who settled on Long Island NY. I hope you may have more info than I have?
