Notes |
- She immigrated in 1897, aged 14, with an Onofrio Di Vittorio, aged 23. He also appears in an 1907 immigration record; it must be the same person because he was headed to 7808 Tioga street. His wife’s name is Antonina.
Marriage record (digest): Vincent Taormina, born in Italy on 31 Dec. 1878, residing at 4431 Penn Ave, Pittsburgh, occupation stovemaker [an error for "shoemaker"]; and Maria DiVittorio, born in Italy 25 Jan. 1882, residing at 236 Edmund St., Pittsburgh. Consent of Salvator DiVittorio, living at 236 Edmund St. Married 27 May 1900 by Rev. B. Riscopo.
At 236 Edmund St. there seem to be two families listed. Only one is Italian: Nicola Guzio, m. to Maria Guzia; living with them are son-in-law Joseph Victoria and his wife, their daughter, Anna Victoria. The Guzios all immigrated in 1898. I can't find a DiVittorio, or a "Salvator," or something close that might be her in the 1900 census.
In 1900 a James & Mary Taormina are living at 4431 Penn Ave.; he was born Dec. 1878, she born Apr. 1882. He's a shoemaker. Despite the date variations, this must be them, with Vincent as James.
She is recorded as crossing the border in Detroit as Mary Di Vittorio Thormin.
