Gary Cascio 12/05/99
Gary, my name is Larry Cascio, originally from Chicago, Il.My grandfather was Antonino Cascio born (we think) in Montemaggiore, Sicily in 1882.He married Rosalie Mancuso, born in 1889, in Montemaggiore. They were married in 1907 in Chicago.The relatives in Sicily said they didn't know each other in Sicily.Everyone in our family was born in the Chicago area.I met a Johnny Cascio in Tunica, Mississippi who said his family is from Cefalu.He lives in Starkville, Mississippi and works for Northland Cable Television and is the Sports Director.I know nothing about my grandfather's ancestry.We were able to find my grandmother's birth record at the Montemaggiore City Hall but not my grandfather's.Also, the relatives were not "able" to tell us why he left town.An interesting side to this is that when we went there we didn't know these people existed but they knew everything about us.Hope some of this was helpful.
