Looking for info on the following:
Eligio Coppa B 11 Dec 1892 in Ponza,Italy D Mar 1970 in Richwood,Douglas,WV married to Filomena "Nana" B 20 Sep 1897 probably in Italy died Jun 1981 in Richwood,Douglas,WV.
Elgio (according to Ellis Island records) emigrated 3 Mar 1920 (was already married) on ship Henry R. Mallory from Naples,Italy to US. On the same boat was a Giovanni Coppa B Abt 1880 also from Ponza & married. I'm thinking he's most likely a brother, or at least some relation. He might be the Giovanni B 7 Mar 1880 in Piazza,Piedmont,Italy D 14 Jan 1952 same place married to Anna Bocca,but that's a guess.
Eligio Coppa & Filomena "Nana" had the following known children:
Mary,Mario,Peter,Dominic,Sylvester,& Joseph.
Joseph Coppa was born 21 Mar 1931 (maybe in Italy) & died in Apr 1980 in Lansing,Fayette,WV. He worked in the coal mines & was on disability for black lung for a number of years until he died of a heart attack.He married Audrey Biggs & they had 6 still living children.
