Hello Herbert,
My family (Picone) came from Grotte (Sicily) in 1912.They settled in Brooklyn NY.Pietro (Peter) b. 1870 and wife Maria b. 1876 had 7 children.I don't have any information on Peter's brothers or sisters.But family has told me that we have family in Louisiana - I haven't made any connections yet.The way I found out exactly where my family was from was by contacting the NY Archives (via email) and they were able to help me.I recently ordered records from FHC and I will be viewing them the first week in January.They are birth & marriage records for 1879-1910 for Grotte.I'm hoping to find siblings of Pietro.Also, I was able to find my family on ellisisland.com.If there is any connection I will contact you.You can email directly anytime if I can help you.
Regards,
Margaret
