For your information, my wife's family ancestors were Antonino Bellanca, b. 23 Nov 1881 in Mussomeli, Sicily and wife Caterina Maria Antinoro, b. 10 Sept 1884. They were married Feb 1906. They settled in Jefferson Co., Ala. When they came to America they brought two children-Salvator "Samuel" Bellanca, b. 14 Sept 1907 and Gesua Bellanca, b. 1909. Gesua died of cholera, probably on Ellis Island. In Alabama they had 4 more children- Michael John Bellanca, b. 22 Mar 1918, Paul Joseph Bellanca, b. 11 Feb 1921, Jessie Mary Bellanca, b. 12 Jun 1926, and Pauline Elizabeth Bellanca, b. 25 Nov 1927.
