The Six Brothers Pose 2

Left to right standing: Giuseppe(Joseph)(murdered in his store in 1924), Bartolo(meo)(Bert), Gaetano(Tom), Antonio(Tony)notice he is slumped down so as not to tower over the others), Giovanni(John) and seated is Francesco(Frank).
I never saw this version till just the last few years. I had to work on this a lot as there was a large scratch across it.

Three Brothers out of the six


Frank, Bert and Tony
Francesco 1883-1949
Bartolo(meo) 1876-1948
Antonio 1888-1983
This too was new to me until a few years ago.

Maria Giuseppa Cafarella

May 25, 1891- Malfa, Salina - March 15, 1984 Malden, Ma.
Josephine was tall. Can you tell? I am not sure if this picture was in Salina or here in Malden somewhere. Quite romantic looking.

Josephine and Tony Cafarella


I think everyone in the family loved to garden to some extent. Many had grapes, perhaps it was in their blood. Neither ever married.

Tony and his sister Josephine Cafarella



This is more the time period I knew them, but I would have been pretty small.

Antonio Cafarella and his cousin Tom Sangiolo

Antonio Cafarella 1888 - Malfa, Salina - 1983 -Malden, Ma.
There is some debate as to whether this is Tom or some other sibling. It is marked on the back, Tony Cafarella and his cousin Sangiolo. Tony is seated.
Anerio Cincotta recently confirmed that this is Tom Sangiolo.

Mitchells in 1958

Mary, Dick and Bill Mitchell with Queenie on Franklin Ave in Houlton Maine 1958. This is the first house that I truly remember.
