Other names I am researching are:

Patricia

Bernarducci, Vincenzo and Rosa Manganello- Not sure where they lived in Italy or if they stayed. According to family stories they came to the US and opened a restaurant (like they had in Italy). I know they had 6 children; Daniel, Matteo, Ernesto Angelina, Raffaella and my grandfather Angelo. All of the children came to the US; however I was also told that Daniel had 2 wives. One he left in Italy (Angelina) and one he married here.
The next name is Pucciarelli (not sure of the spelling). My grandmother (Angelo's wife) Jenny was a Pucciarelli, but she was born in the US. Her parents were Matthew and Angelina and came to the US but I don't know when. My grandfather married my grandmother in May 1909. I woulda lso like the proper spelling of Puccierelli. Can you help with either of these?
Thanks,

Pat

I am looking at the surname Pucciarelli. I began my research 16 years ago, before we had internet. One of the first things I searched were the ship passenger manifests. I had to go to the NYC public library to do that.

Because I was not familiar with the scrolly writing. I thought my great grandmothers surname was Pucciarello. As I got more documents with the name on it, I discovered the P was actually a T and the name was misspelled. It turned out to be Tucciariello.
