I am working on the maternal side of my family tree. I am looking for living Delmonte/ D'Alimonte descendants in Connecticut. The specific families I am interested in are those descended from Guiseppe D'Alimonte and his wife Margaret (formerly of 68 Tracey Ave., Torrington, CT); and the family of Paolo (aka Paul) Delmonte and his wife Clotilda (Pesce). Their parents were: Fabio D'Alimonte and Mary Di Paolo of Turrivalignani, Pescara, Abruzzi, Italy. Guiseppe and Paolo were brothers. My grandfather, Enrico D'Alimonte was another one of their brothers. He arrived in the USA on the Duca d'Aosta, June 26, 1912; he departed from Naples; when he came through Ellis Island his record shows he was to meet with his brother Guiseppe D'Alimonte. Here is what I know about Guiseppe D'Alimonte - born: April 8, 1878 (presume it to be Turrivalignani but not documented); died: Feb. 1977 in Torrington, Litchfield, Connecticut; he lived on Tracy Ave. in Torrington; was married and had at least 7 children- Elena, Enrico, Ernest, Josephina, Victoria, and two daughters whose names are not clear (from the 1910 and 1920 federal census); - I have no documents on these family members; Guiseppe's wife's name was Margaret. She was born in Italy. Rico was living in Brooklyn according to family members. A letter I wrote there was returned. He may have died. Guiseppe had a brother Paolo (Paul)D'Alimonte. (Paolo's last name is spelled Delmonte in most records.) He and his wife lived with Guiseppe for a while and then moved into thier own place. This is from the census data as well. Paolo was born in Italy. So was his wife, Clotilda Pesce. They also had at least seven children - Mollie, Mary, Margaret, John, Antoinette, Elvino and Alphonso. The children from both of these families were all born in CT. Constantine D'Alimonte was another brother. I do not know his age or much else about him. I do know he assumed the name of Joseph Marno when he arrived in the USA. He died in Port Washington, NY. He was married to Giovanna Contato - she was from Naro, Sicily; she died about 1966 in Norwich, NY. They had two boys Angelo and Ernest Marno (both now deceased). My grandfather once spoke of a sister but no family members know anything about her or if there were any other siblings. Can anyone help me locate any living descendents? I would love to fill in some gaps in the family tree as well as add any interesting or colorful stories of our common ancestors. I would be happy to share what information I already have. Can anyone offer any help or suggestions? Thanks in advance. Thanks also to the owners of this wonderful site!
