Researching:

Antonio Contessa b. 26 Oct. 1865 San Marco in Lamis, Foggia, d. 31 Jan. 1932 San Marco in Lamis, Foggia
married Marie Emanuela Rendina on 23 Nov. 1889 S. Marco in Lamis, Foggia. Marie Emanuela was born 18 Jun, 1870 in S. Marco in Lamis and died on 01 Sept., 1967 S. Marco in Lamis..
As far as I know only 2 of their children left Italy. Maria Teresa who married Luigi LOMBARDOZZI went to Australia and my great grandfather Leonardo to the US on 5 Mar, 1907.
Their children:
1. Maria Luigia b. 13 Aug. 1887, m. Giuseppe Antonio VILLANI
2. Antoniella b. July 27, 1890 m. Nicole CIAVARELLA
3. Leonardo b. 07 Jan., 1892 m . Alma Clara TRAUTMANN (WA state)
4. Angela b. July 11, 1895 m. Giuseppe CENTOLE
5. Maria Teresa b. June 03, 1898 m. Luigi LOMBARDOZZI
