The Rado Sister, Angeline D'Ambrosio

The only information I can find about Angeline is that she was born in Illinois, but married an Italian born man, Jerry D'Ambrosio. They lived in the same tenement building as the rest of the family. They had two sons, John and Rocco. According to John's age in the 1920 census, I believe he may have been the son of Jerry, but step-son of Angeline. She was only 22 in that census. Rocco is young enough to have been her natural born son. Jerry D'Ambrosio is listed as working in a barber shop. Angeline is mentioned in the obituaries of her brothers and parents. However, I have not been able to find her obituary or any further information about her life and death. 1/27/09 Update: Jerry and Angeline had a daughter named Catherine, and a nephew Anthony D'Ambrosio lived with the family in 1930.
