Biography

Domenico Gagliano is a Corleone native resident, the son of Gaetano Gagliano and Vincenza Gagliano, who married in 1837. He is named after his paternal grandfather.

Domenico marries Lucia Savona, daughter of Biagio Savona and Lucia Sanzone, on 31 July 1864.^[1]

Domenico and Lucia have at least two children, Gaetano (1868) and Biagio (1887).

Biagio is born and baptized 16 January 1887 in Corleone. His godparents are Giuseppe Sanzone and Rosa, his daughter.^[2] Biagio is named after his maternal grandfather.

On the Trimveria in 1893, a large party of travelers from Corleone embark in Palermo and arrive in New Orleans. They are known from vital records; the manifest does not name their home town. Among them is:

179. Domenico Gagliano, 51 (b. 1842), shoemaker^[3]

In October 1902, Biagio, age fifteen, joins a large party from Corleone who are emigrating to the United States. According to the manifest, he is meeting his brother, Gaetano, in New Orleans.

Gaetano marries Francesca Paola Cascio on 15 October 1905 in Corleone. His parents are both still living.^[4][5]
