1910 US Federal Census: Felice "Jack" and Maria "Thresa" Bacigalupo

When I first saw the 1910 Census for 166 W Central in St. Paul, I thought that "Jack and Thresa Bacigaluppo" were Jacob and Teresa Bacigalupo. But there was a problem with the ages and with the number of years they had been in America. The ages fit Felice and his wife, Maria, who are most likely going by their middle names or a nickname. Interestingly, their lodger, Carmelo Terrile, is the brother-in-law of Felice 2 mentioned in the Introduction. A year later Felice and Theresa named their first son, Joseph Carmelo Bacigalupo.

Notice also that Felice's sister, Amelia Bacigalupo, is boarding with the Segale family where she is listed as a "cousin." It would be interesting to find out that connection.
