Notes
a. Note:   Pietro Paolo Quario (Querio) changed his name to Peter Quinn some time after he came to the US. He also used the name Quinto as shown on his naturalization papers 1924, Livingston County, lllinois. The prayer card at his funeral said his last name was Quinto. His headstone (Quinn) says he was born in 1870 which is incorrect. Pietro Quario, 23 years old, arrived Ellis Island, December 27, 1892, Port of Departure - Le Havre, Seine-Inferior, France, Ship of Travel - La Normanndie. The ship manifest indicates that there were 3 other men sharing his cabin who were miners and going to Missouri (may be reason he went to Missouri). The manifest shows that he could read and write, was an Ailien and headed for Michigan.
  A Doctor Lunaghi had immigrated from the same area of Italy as Pietro and had settlled in the St. Louis, MO area. The Doctor purchased land and started two very large cole mines employing Italians as workers, perhaps employing Pietro. If Pietro was related to the Musso's, the Musso's had estalished themselves in the St. Louis/Collinsville area about the same time period and were working in the mines.
  The La Normandie was build by Vickers, Sons & Maxim Limited, Barrow-in-Furness, England, 1882. 6,283 gross tons; 459 (bp) feet long; 49 feet wide. Compound engine, single screw. Service speed 16.5 knots. 1,109 passangers (175 first class, 68 second class, 866 third class). Built for French Line, French flag, in 1882 and named La Normandie Le Hare-New York service. Laid down as Ville de New York, lauched as Normandie, but renamed. Scrapped in Scotlannd in 1911.
  Peter never owned a car. Monte Quinn's father said that Peter (Pietro) had been a prison guard in Sicily and also served in the Italian army. We have a picture of Pietro in uniform.
