I just saw this and was wondering if you could give me any further info (married names, Rosalia Taormina's married name, Birth order).
My great- grandfather was Ignazio Taormina, whom I believe to possible be your great-grandmother's brother. My grandfather did not know his relatives in New York - he just remembers that his father, Ignazio had a relative they called Cosmo.
I am trying to sort it all out. According to the 1940 census - Cosmo Taormina was a widow in 1940 and he had 2 daughters living with him - Rosalie Taormina age 20, and Angelina Taormina age 16.
I am more than happy to send you any further information that I am able to find. Thank you so very much for your help.
