Thank you Rose, but I think that second one is a bit old to be my chap.

Oh well put this one back in the puzzle box for now!

Would any kind person be able to look up a passenger listing in Ancestry for 1870 - 1914 in the name of Benedetto or Beneditto Gerace?

There is a record of a person by this name arriving in New York and the person I am looking for was going to emigrate to the USA with his new wife Maria Belardo (he was 17 & she was 14 and they had eloped) from Italy. I believe Beneditto also had 3 brothers who had already emigrated to the USA from the province of Enna in Sicily.

I don't know that this is the right person, but if anyone could help it would be much appreciated.

Thanks

(I believe he may have been born around 1877 but have not confirmed this, and he died in 1942 in Alexandria, Egypt).
