He married Elvira Santorella in NYC abt 1918 and they lived in CT and had six children. Both died in Norwalk Ct, he in 1942 and she in 1966. I would appreciate any help anyone can give me. send ans to clapic @ yahoo.com

Is that ok with you? Also, can you tell us if you have placed the family on a census or what documents you do have?
