With the help of these really AWESOME Folks at ItalianGenealogy.com we have found this infornmation.
From Ellis Island:
First Name: Biagio
Last Name: Crasci
Ethnicity: Italian
Last Place of Residence: Militello
Date of Arrival: Oct 19, 1899
Age at Arrival: 21y Gender: M Marital Status: S
Ship of Travel: Spartan Prince
Port of Departure: Naples
Manifest Line Number: 0011
"because another Crasi, coming from Militello, also emigrated in USA ( Cleveland OH) in 1901; well in same travel www.ellisisland.org/EI...;line=0009
it was a Rosario Sidoti; now, Sidoti surname is also the maiden name of a daughter in law of Biagio( wife of the son : Charles)"
This Biagio's destination was to a cousin with last name Manzo who was living at 120 Still Street in Cleveland.
We do believe that the birth places are:
Biagio: Militello Rosmarino( Messina province)
Carmela: Sant'Agata di Militello ( Messina province)
Thank you to all who have helped in finding information on this subject. I greatly appreciate it....I sure hope to be able to move forward!
Have a great day!!!
