Surnames: Daleo, Biundo, Tocco
Hello anyone who might have some info. My name is Crystal Kee and I'm desperately trying to build my family tree. My grandparents are Peter Lawrence Daleo and Nancy Biundo and my great grandparents (on my grandfather's side) who came over from Cinisi Palermo to St. Louis are Salvatore Daleo and Rose Tocco. Any help at all would be so greatly appreciated!

Hi! Maybe check out my tree? I'm new to this also. My grandmother is Mary Tocco, the daughter of Francesca Daleo and Peter Tocco. We currently live in San Diego. I'm guessing they were siblings?

Hope to hear from you.

Hi Crystal. I have built the family trees for both Salvatore Daleo (D'Aleo) & Rose Tocco complete with as many of the church records as I could find from Terrasini, Sicily. Salvatore and Rose were actually 1st cousins.

Rosa's parents were Giuseppe Tocco & Maria Daleo (D'Aleo).

Salvatore's parents were Pietro Daleo (D'Aleo) and Margherita Orlando aka Maria Marino (another story on why she has an aka)

Rosa's mother and Salvatore's father were brother and sister.

Rosa Tocco is the sister of my mother-in-law, Vittoria Tocco. If you need any help, please let me know. I can give you viewing access to my tree so you can follow the branches of the tree. Because of the families crossing over in marriages, sometimes the branch on one line is incomplete but takes off on another branch. It got very confusing...!

Hi Rachel. You and Crystal have something in common. Your great grandmother, Francesca Daleo (D'Aleo) and her great grandfather, Salvatore Daleo (D'Aleo) are sister and brother. :)

Peter Tocco is the brother of my father-in-law.

. As I told Crystal, I have built the trees for both families. Although, I have built the trees going back multiple generations...filling in the branches with all of the crossing of families in marriages there is a whole lot of duplication of which I finally had to take a break from. As I told Crystal, if you need any help, or would like viewing access to my tree...feel free to ask. .... Marie Tocco

Great! Thank you so much.. I'm excited to take a look. I know my grandmother Mary Tocco, daughter of Frances Daleo and Peter Tocco (actually the last living child unfortunately) will be ecstatic to see all of this as well. Thank you for your time, we appreciate it!

I will need an outside e-mail address to send the invitation to view my tree. You just make a screen name and a password (for privacy).

For Peter Tocco's tree...follow Leonardo Tocco and Rosa Orlando

For Francesca Daleo (D'Aleo in Sicily)...you will follow the links of Salvatore D'Aleo and Rosa Ciolino...her grandparents. But her father (Pietro) is shown in the family. It is best to follow that link as I have not finished filling in all of the duplicates and there are tons of them.

Francesca D'Aleo's mother was Margherita Orlando aka Maria Marino. She was adopted as an infant (birth name was Maria Marino). Agostino (a cousin still living in Sicily) told me the adoption was actually illegally performed and he could not find any civil records for her birth under the name Maria Marino. So I cannot find any more records for her. However, she did use both names and various combinations...that made things interesting.

All of the records showing are those I have retrieved from digging through the church records in Terrasini, Sicily..

Tell your grandmother, my husband is Salvador Tocco...son of Ambrosio & Vittoria Tocco.

Until then...ciao

Great! Thank you so much for your help. I know she will be excited to see all of this. Her father Peter Tocco (married to Francesca Daleo) died when she was only 5, she is the youngest and the last living of their children unfortunately. I know she will be excited to know there is a fellow correspondence!

Oh my gosh Marie! I just saw this! You don't know how happy I am that you've taken the time, and have info on this. It's been like pulling teeth;) I was talking to my Great Aunt Angel about how I've seem to hit a dead end, and she had mentioned that someone from the Tocco side had worked on a Tree; not sure if she was thinking about you? Also, it's so awesome to see that I have blood relatives I did not know about... Hi Rachel! ;) Anyways, I'm ecstatic, and would love to see any information at all you have! My home email is cinderella042083@yahoo.com, and my cell is (619) 212-9936 if you want to text or call. Thank you so much for contacting me. So excited!!!
