In Memory of
Giovanni (John) Marvulli
18 May 1875, Grumo Appula, Bari, Italy ~ 22 Jan. 1959, Hollis, Queens, New York
Son of Domenico Marvulli and Rosa D’Armiento
John was my 2 X great uncle – brother to my great grandmother Nicoletta Civitano nee Marvulli. Of eleven children born to his parents, John was the second son and one of only four children that lived to adulthood. He was married twice, his first wife was Grazia Scarola of Grumo Appula, Italy and together they had five children, four who lived to adulthood. Grazia passed in 1916, in New York. He went on to marry Maria Fazio in 1922, New York, and they went on to have 3 children together.
May His Memory Be A Blessing

Only 4 out of eleven survived to adulthood—mind-boggling.
