  • Notes 
    • Ed. Note: According to my Aunt "Phil" (Philomena Caranci Souza), he came to America (Philadelphia) when my grandfather (Giovanni Carlo) was 3 (1899). He left his family in Italy and he "boarded" with a woman there and had 9 children by her, who all go by 'Caranci'.

      There is an entry at Ellis Island for a Giuseppi Carlo Caranci who landed in June 5, 1899 aboard the S.S. Hesperia out of Naples. He was 24 at the time and his last residence was Castelpizzuto, Italy. His final destination was Philadelphia. His brother G. A. Caranci was at the address 1741 South Seventh Street.

      Hesperia: Built by D. & W. Henderson & Company, Glasgow, Scotland, 1882. 3,037 gross tons; 340 (bp) feet long; 37 feet wide. Compound engine, single screw. Service speed 11 knots. 760 passengers (760 third class).

      Built for Anchor Line, British flag, in 1882 and reverted to Hesperia. Glasgow-New York and Mediterranean-New York service. Also Glasgow-Bombay service. Scrapped in Italy in 1905.
