This is the US 1930 Census record that has my great great grandmothers family info.  The info on them is found on line 18.  Terry Palumbo (husband), Barbara (wife), Rocco (son), Paul (son), and Mary (daughter).  In 1930 my great great mother Dolores (Addolorata) Palumbo was married and lived with her family else where.  The record contains each family members age, marital status, where they were both and what language they speak, when they came to the US, and what their job was.  Terry (Diodoro) Tremonte is 70 years old at this time and doesn't have a job.  Barbara is 50 years old and doesn't have job either.  Rocco their son is 19 and he is the only one in the family with a job, so he is providing the families support at the time.  He appears to work for a Silk Company.  Paul is 9 years old, and Mary is 6.  The family is residing in New Jersey, Jersey City, Hudson County.

Umberto Bologna Immigration Record



One of Diodoro Tremonte and Concetta Costanzo's children was Libera Tremonte, who married Umberto Bologna.  I found an immigration record on Umberto Bologna but I'm not sure if it's right.  I wish I know the story about them.  Did they meet and marry in Italy or in the US or in Canada were they ended up?  Umberto Bologna is on line 9 on this record.  According to the record on Umberto in 1909 he immigrated and he was 24 and single at the time.  That'd put his birth year some where around 1885.  It says he is from Genoa, Italy.  It's his first time to the US.  On the line asking about who he is going to join is hard to make out.  Looks like maybe "cousin Carle Gidazio".  And I can't make out the address he is going to.

Let me know if you know if this is the Umberto who married Libera or if you know any other info about him.  Thanks.
