Last names,Cities,or ports, and even passenger ships were sometimes not recorded properly, so that adds on lots of time to these searches.
Michael Guida sailed to Ellis Island on August 2, 1892. We believed the ships' name was "La Maggiore", but on the ellisisland website, this ship was not listed. His wife to be and their son guiseppe sailed about one year later to ellis island on may 2, 1893, aboard the ship belived to be "La Scala", but this ship also was not part of the entries of ships. I think the Port they left from was either Genoa in the north of Italy or Napoli, in the south, but not sure.
Michael had a brother named Joseph (aka another Guiseppe) and Leo. There was also rumors that Michael came from Milano, or Avellino.

He knew of a teacher, Angello Ferrullo, who taught in the city of Bergamo. Victoria and Guiseppe Caporale were also mentioned. They had two daughters, Antoinette and Mary. Michael Guida (and Antoinette with baby) were passengers August 2nd, on the ship "La Maggiore", in 1892, and sailed to Ellis island, N.Y. Some of the immigrants were taken to the Port of Boston. Luigi Caruso was his friend. I did a search on this La Maggiore and it was not included in the ships.

Looking for decendents of Pellegrino Mottola, son of Raffaelo Mottola and Filomena Strumolo from Avelino. Also, decendents of Sabbato Campanile and Maria Freddi from Montefusco, Avellino. Their daughter Anna (my great grandmother) came to America and married Donato DiGuglielmo son of Giuseppe and Teresa Accucella. Donato returned to Italy and died there. They had a son Mario who returned to Italy and lived with his aunt Assunta(DiMonve). Anna then remarried Pellegrino Mottola and had more children: Filomena, Maria,Sabatino, Immaculata, Assunta and Josephine. If anyone knows of any of these families please contact me. I am traveling to the area in August, 2007.
