Julia was born today, June 18th, 1909. She was the sister to my grandfather Frank Civitano.
Today I remember and celebrate her birthday.
Both Julia and Frank were born in New York City to Vincenzo Civitano and Nicoletta Marvulli. Just 4 months after Julia was born, her father Vincenzo was murdered, stabbed in the streets of the city over what was believed a ‘ice route’ dispute.
