I have a Book (more like a Brochure) calle the The Cuneo Museum & Gardens. This book is in full color showing the mansion that is now a museum. This book was obtained from a cousin (deceased) who contacted John Cuneo in Chicago John Jr's grandfather was my great grandfather's brother. According to family history. They were from Cuneo Italy of the upper class. They came to America going through Ellis Island. My great grandfather named John F. Cuneo migrated to Alabama and then on to Tampa, Florida where he is buried in Wood Lawn Cemetery. If anyone has any further information on the rest of the family, I would be interested. My mother's name is Cuneo. I have not researched this family much as I've got so many more ancestors that I'm researching. If you do a search for "Cuneo Musuem" it will pop up and give you some more infor. John Cuneo did marry Julia shepherd , grandaughter of one of the founders of the Chicago base Crerar-Adams Railway Supply Company. As a note of interest The Cuneo Press is one of the largest printing companies in America and prints many of the most widely circulated mags. etc Good Housekeeping, Cosmopolitan, etc,

His father donated the land for the Frank Cuneo Hospital and John Jr. oversaw the building of it. The Cuneo's owned many other companies too numerous to name. If anyone can get a chance to go see the museum it is really something to see according to the pictures. I got as close as 300 miles this past summer, but my schedule would not allow me to go to Chicago. If anyone has the family history prior to John Sr. I would love to hear from you. Nancy
