McTall, Ralph aka: Raphael Metallo
My great great grandfather was Raphael Metallo. He was born in the 1860s in Terano Castello, Italy. He had, it has been told to me, lived in Calabria, Italy too before coming to the US -- on a boat from Naples to New York. He married my great great grandmother Mary Josephine Jardine : aka Mary Josephine Gardine and Mary Josephine Gardini. She was born in 1881 in Pagaricci, Italy; however, Raphael's citizenship papers indicate that this wife was born in Melito,{actually stated: Malita, Italy} Italy. I know that Josephine had a sister named Rose. I have much information on their descendants and on Josephine's children and grandchildren from her second marriage to Vincenzo DeCeseare {aka Vincent James Checco} ; however, I am looking for more information on Raphael's parents and siblings and on Josephine's parents and siblings. Raphael Metallo changed his name or rather went by an alternative name much later after his immigration to the US, and this name, Ralph McTall was the beginning of the McTall family branch. One of Raphael Metallo's children Louie Metallo changed his own name too to Louie McTall. Louie's sons: Ralph Louis "Nook" McTall and George Washington McTall married and had children -- the boys all go by the last name of McTall. More information is available, write to me, please. I will be happy to share the information I have. Thanks.
Regards,
Hélène
