My grandfather was Raffaele Cardamone and he married Guiseppina Marasco in 1907. He came from southern Italy and lived at first with an uncle on Maple St. in Conshohocken,PA . I believe he arrived in America in1896. He and my grandmother had 12 children and they lived in Conshocken were they died. My aunts and uncles all raised their families there or nearby as well. As a young woman, just after the war, my mother came to CA and lived with her uncle Gene Marasco where she met my father and that is where she stayed. My grandfather had a brother named Francis who was married to Rose. My grandfather's father was Anthony Cardamone married to Bridget.
There are only 2 of the 12 children still livng and I have countless cousins still living in the Conshy area where I spent many summer vacations there growing up. It was my second home!
