Sorry I forgot the dates! Yes, that is the right family. I don't have a birth date for Rosa PALMISANO other than what can be deduced from the census. Vincenzo and Rosa probably had siblings I know nothing about. Vincenzo PALMISANO was born 9 Oct 1855 in Termini. His wife Antonina CORSO was born 3 Jun 1864 in Termini. Their children were Lorenzo (Lawrence) born 11 Oct 1885 in Termini Maria (Mary) PALMISANO born abt. 1890 Giacoma PALMISANO born abt 1891 Anna PALMISANO born Apr 1896 Rosa (Rose) PALMISANO born 26 Apr 1901 Angela PALMISANO born abt. 1904 As far as I can tell Vincenzo PALMISANO first came to the United States in 1892. He made a trip back to Sicily and came back to Cincinnati bringing his son Lorenzo with him in 1895, though I have not been able to find Lorenzo in the 1900 census. His wife and 3 daughters, Maria, Giacoma, and Anna came over in 1900. Giacoma died about six months after their arrival, and is buried in St. Joseph New Cemetery. Rosa and Angela were born in Cicinnati. The family made one or two trips back to Italy between 1907 and 1920. Sometime in the early 1920's they left Cincinnati and settled in Niagara Falls, NY.
