I have been trying to locate ancesters. My search is halted because of the lack of 1890 census. I know several facts because of birth certificate June 1900. Trying to find out any information on a Theresa/Teresa DeMar (b. 1880-1882 ) PA . She was the wife of George Trevelina Risso. Found Theresa Risso under the name Theresa" Risse "in 1900 census (Philadelphia). She was my g-grandmother. The only information I have is that she lived with the Arata family in 1922 with her 3 children and there names are listed as "Rissell" not Risso. According to the 1900 census she is listed as 20 yrs old. In the 1020 census she is listed as 38 so there is a 2 yr. discrepancy. On the birth certificate of my grandfather his parents are listed as George Trevelina and Theresa Risso. If anyone has any information or leads on discovering the tale/trail of these Philly "fruit vendors" PLEASE reply. I have birth certificate 1900 I have WW1 registration with these names as parents.
Thank you!
