Monzo Fam Tree on ancestry
1940 in Paterson, N.J.
Mariconda/Gannitello tree on ancestry (gives bdate of 11 Sep 1931, but that conflicts 
with 3 Nov 1931 bdate for Francis, which is given by both this and the Monzo tree; 
1940 census makes clear that Teresa is born before Francis, so I am using 1930)
