• Notes

  Domenica was born a preemie in Palermo. Her parents had gone there and Rosalia went into labor. She was named after the person who baptized her. Baptized in the Cathedral or in the matrice. Came to America first with Caterina in 1902 aboard the Trojan Prince at age 20, using the name Cosima!! Then came again in 1920 at age 37 with Joseph and Pietro (must have been visiting) aboard the Presidente Wilson, also traveling under the name Cosima. According to Rose P, Domenica's real name was Cosima-Damiana, who were the twin saints.
