In Memory of
Catherine Saccoccio nee DeLellis
7 October 1912 Rhode Island ~ 3 February 1938, Cranston, Rhode Island
Daughter of Luigi DeLellis and Annunziata Cordini
Catherine is at rest in the St Anne Cemetery in Cranston, Providence, Rhode Island
May Her Memory Be A Blessing
Catherine was one of nine children born to her parents. With the exception of a brother, Francesco b. 1908 d. 1909, she was the first in her family to pass away, and at the young age of 26. I can find no record or mention as to the cause of her death but whether it was from a natural cause, sickness or accident it was a tragedy. Married in 1935 to Anthony Saccoccio, Catherine passed just 2 years later. Prior to her death, 2 children had been born. A son Louis, and a daughter named Madeline who would later marry Robert Frank Montaquila. I have written about the family in an earlier post where I detailed a newspaper article for Madeline. The article sited Madeline, the daughter of the late Catherine DeLellis Saccoccio.
In the 1940 census, I found father Anthony (son) with 2 children Louis 7 (grandson ) and Madeline 6 (granddaughter) living with his parents Louis (64) and Madeline (67) along with 2 sister’s and a brother at 15 Randall St., Cranston, Providence, Rhode Island. Anthony was working as a mould maker. An earlier 1935 census for Anthony lists him as married, living at 12 Knight St., Cranston working as a toolmaker in Jewelry Factory. I also found the 1935 census for Catherine at the same address. Interesting to me is the Rhode Island 1935 census is recorded on an individual punch type of card, like one might use in the older fashion of voting.
In Memory of
Vera Mosca nee DeLellis
25 January 1917 Cranston, Rhode Island ~ 5 February 1987 San Bernardino, California
Daughter of Luigi DeLellis and Annunziata Cordini
Vera is at rest at Rose Hills Memorial Park, Whittier, California
May Her Memory Be A Blessing
Vera was a younger sister of Catherine. She was married by 1935 to Louis Mosca. Beyond that, I know very little about Vera nor was I able any information on Vera. Both Vera and Catherine were my first cousin 2x removed.
