The following is a summary of the findings from the Ellis Island
Immigration Center records on the Ceppo family's emigration to the United
States. This information was obtained by reviewing the ship manifest
records for the Ceppo family.
The following table summarizes these records sorted by date of
arrival. For ease of understanding, the relationships are described in
terms of "Generation" from the Ceppo kinship chart and in terms of relation to
Pete Ceppo (known as Uncle Pete) married to Vita Lombardo Ceppo (Aunt Lena).
Note that more detailed information from these manifest
document images can be found in the
Ceppo Manifest Detail
document.

Note:
From the ship manifests it appears that Uncle Pete's family made one
failed attempt to come to the US. There is a entry in the manifest
of the Ship Perugia, sailing from Palermo on Nov 14, 1909 ( a year earlier)
where the following people were listed but did not disembark in the US.
This occurred because one or more of these people had some condition (probably a
health condition) that would not allow them to enter to US. So they all
waited for a later date.
-
Francesca Giacalone - Uncle Pete's mother
-
Maria, Pietro, and Nicolo Ceppo - Uncle Pete and his brother and
sister
-
Anna Rizzo - Uncle Pete's aunt
-
Grazia Rizzo - Uncle Pete's aunt - Never
came to the US
