Dear Vince,

I recently came across your website > Taylor Street Archives.

I have been searching for information about my mother’s father’s family. GRANATA that lived on Taylor Street in the early 1900s.

My grandfather was Frank Granata and worked for Hart Schaffner & Marx, as a tailor. His father, named Raphael (Ralph) Granata was married to Giuseppina Granata (Sparra).

My grandfather had brothers: Salvatore Granata and Anthony Granata.

My cousin hired a genealogist to find out when my grandmother (Frances Raschillo) and grandfather were married and no one knows, nor can we find any public record.

If you have any tips you can help me uncover the mystery, I would be so grateful.

Thank you for your time and happy holidays to you and your family!

Maria
