My connection to Bolognetta is the following: My paternal grandfather was born there. He left, alone, to go to America when he was about 13 years old. The ship's mannifest reflects that his fare was paid for by a man named "D'Amato" listed as his father . When he arrived in NYC he was sponsored by distant cousins who raised him on Elizabeth Street (Manhattan). He later married my maternal grandmother (Carmela) who had immmigrated to the USA, specifically NYC from Marineo. He passed away at age 42 (1935), I believe so I never got to know him.
My wife & I visited Palermo and Bolognetta in 2008. I was unable to find any records of him (Alfredo or Giacomo Ginetto). Lovely town now. We ate dinner at a fabulous restaurant, which appeared to have once been a farm, as it had many farm implements hanging from its walls. The food was great and very affodable. These are my memories of a fine and beautiful place called "Bolognetta" to which my roots will always belong. Ciao!
