Antonia was my grandmother. I visited her in her home. She is listed in the 1910 fed census for Cherry Township,PA. .I have a copy of this census in her images. The last name was spelled De Lorenzo,but I know it is her family as all the names are correct and ages of the family members. I also have a copy of her marriage to Bartolo in 1898 from the Italian marriage records and the Ellis island record from her arrival in the U.S.A in 1909 in her images. She is also listed in the 1920 fed census for Rochester, NY. She had a brother, Salvatore, who was killed in the coal mines in Pennsylvania. I put a copy of his birth from the italia Nati eBattesimi,1806-1900 in Antonia's images as I couldn't find one for her.
