These passengers are not identified on the manifest by their city of birth or last place of residence. Most have been positively identified as individuals from Corleone. Giovanni is the closest match for the passenger on this manifest of the same name, based on a review of baptisms in Corleone, 1858-68. There is another Giovanni di Miceli born the same month, who dies in childhood. Cascio-10 18:02, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
