THE RICCA FAMILY HOMEPAGE

The Family of
Candido and Rosa Cavallo in Ricca



HOW TO NAVIGATE THE SITE:  Click on a name, for further information. In general, click on a parent, you go to that parent's family's page. When you click on a child's page, you go to that child's household's page. I have tried to put up separate pages for children who marry or otherwise partner, have their own children, etc.,  if I am so informed, or whenever further information is available. If an individual does not have her or his own page and you think that should be addressed, do email me! It usually means only that I do not have that information, and nothing else should be implied by lack of an individual page.

With the exception of those individuals whom I personally remember or whose stories I remember, all information has been furnished by volunteers. If you think information needs correcting, by all means let me know.

I invite you to send your own photos, stories, recipes, etc. We have limited space, so group shots are always preferred over individual photos.

There are many blanks, especially maiden names. If you can fill in the blanks, please email me. I am especially looking for photos of Candido's and Rosa's parents.

Thanks to Ken Ricca for providing this picture. This photograph was taken in July 1920 at the Keystone family picnic. This photo recently appeared in the inside front cover of a book published by Jerry Klein of the Peoria Journal Star. The book is entitled A Pictorial History of Peoria Industry.

I don't know who the little ones are, Don and John and ? If you know, write me!


We think the kids are Don with Candido, and John
on Rosa's lap. Thanks to the Applegrens for providing it!

Jennie, Rose, and Catherine, date unknown.
