Antonino Militello (Uncle Tony, Neno, Anthony)

Antonino Militello was born in Terrasini, Sicily on 21 Oct 1883 I don't have a date of death or final resting place as of yet. His parents are Santo Militello and Rosalia Trentecoste.

Census states he came to America in 1910 I can't prove that...yet

I found a World War I draft card with "Tony Militello" listed. I am pretty sure this is Antonino

I don't have a married date for Antonino but I found him in the 1920 Census living at 425 Lafayette Street in Detroit.  NOTE* on the census records it says "Antonio"

I also found a 1921 Detroit City Directory that shows Tony Militello living at the same address I am pretty certain this is Antonino

In the 1930 Census Antonino is living on Dickerson Street, his wife's name is Josephine and he is working as a "huckster-fruit peddler" I am not 100% this is Antonino but it does fit the dates

The 1940 Census shows "Anthony" living on Parker Street, with his wife Josephine and still working as a Fruit Peddler. He also has a son Anthony Jr working at an auto factory

I also found an "Old' Man's Draft card from 1942 that show's Antonino living on Grey Street
