Hello all,
I have been attempting to work on my Great-Grand Uncle Nicola's biography but have been getting distracted by all of the information I am finding about his family through this process. One of the main reasons I am so distracted is that he was a laborer in the US for many years. Expecting to do enough work to get enough money to bring back to his family in Italy and eventually, he became a US citizen and ended up raising a family in Ohio along with his siblings Vincenzo and Rosalia (Trizzino) Di Lio (New York) who also came to the US to start anew. Vincenzo was the only one who truly came here without his own family and seemed to make it his home right away becoming a US Citizen by 1916.
While Vincenzo became a citizen fairly quickly, NIcola wasn't worried about starting a new life in the US but rather making things better in Italy. With that in mind, he went back and forth between the US and Italy several times before becoming a citizen officially. I have found many of his US arrival records but have not seen any departure records from here.
Does anybody know how to find these? It would really benefit my timeline and flesh out his story more.
Thanks,
Mike
