Is there a way I could research an murder or deportation in Italy in the early-1920's?
Q. I was talking with my grandmother today and she told me that her father (Rocco Lozito) came to the U.S. because he murdered someone. She said he was in between the ages of 14-16 when this happened. I don't know all the details to why he wasn't prosecuted, but I'm taking it's possible they couldn't have prosecuted him as an adult since he was a minor. So he was given the option of deportation. Suppodely, everyone in his village (in the Bari province - it may have been Torrito) had to raise enough money for him to be able to move to Mexico. So they did and he moved to Mexico, and not too much later, moved to the U.S. I don't know if he initially moved to Brooklyn, in New York City, but that's where he'd eventually live most of his life. She… [cont.]

A. Rocco lozito 23 Feb 190411 Feb 1992 (V)10305 (Staten Island, Richmond, NY)(none specified)109-30-1007New York Tom, above is ssdi (free at rootsweb). The key here is the date he gave; and he has a social security file out there. And possibly a naturalization file. Your comment on deportation is very iffy.. deporting someone is normally forcing a person to leave, who is not legal in that place. Being born in Italy.. he would have been prosecuted there, not kicked out. If a murder occurred, my bet is that he never was charged, and ran. I don't think American standards of prosecution as adult or minor are going to be applicable. What census data do you have, and (again, buddy of mine.. you need to be seeing the full copy). Is there some way… [cont.]

Help On Finding Out When My Great-Great-Grandfather died?
Q. I have a lot of information on him. I've put some of it together, but haven't put all of it together yet. So, here's what I know. His name is John Clark. His son, my maternal great-grandfather, is James Clark. I know his son was born in November 1880. I'm not sure what year John Clark was born in, but I know it was in the United States. I'm figuring he was probably born in the neighborhood of 1850. However, I don't know if he was born in New York, but it may be since his son was born there and he died there. I also know he was of Irish descent and Catholic, but not sure if his parents were from Ireland. I'm guessing it's possible though, since most Irish Catholic immigrants came around the Potato Famine. I know there's some interesting… [cont.]
