Giglio

Italian: from the personal name Giglio from giglio 'lily' (from Latin lilium) a plant considered to symbolize the qualities of candor and purity.


Daughter of Sabato and Antonia Giglio of Italy. Wife of Vito Mirro. Mother of: Antoinette Rose Mirro Paesano; Louise Mirro Scalzitti; Elmer Mirro; James Mirro; Julia Mirro Zeola and Joseph Mirro. Mary Giglio arrived in America from Palomonte, Italy on the ship "Florida" on November 11, 1907. The port of departure for the ship was Naples, Italy on October 27, 1907.Mary Giglio is listed as age 22 and is traveling with her daughter, Antonia (Antoinette Mirro age 4). It appears that she was not married because she is using her maiden name of "Giglio" and Antoinette is using "Mirro." Mary's father in Palemonte, Italy is listed as Sabato Giglio (he is listed as Antoinette's grandfather) and this makes perfect sense because Mary Giglio Mirro had a brother named, Sabato Giglio, Jr. who is buried in the same cemetery as she in Pennsylvania. Mary's father is incorrectly listed as "Antonio" on her death certificate. Sabato Giglio, Sr. was born about 1847 and he is listed as coming to New York on April 17, 1897 on the ship, Patria from Naples ,Italy. Since no further record can be found, it is assumed that he just visited and then returned to Palemonte, Italy. Mary ran a boarding house in Wilmerding, PA on Middle Avenue. She is buried in St. Joseph Cemetery next to her husband, Vito Mirro. Buried in section E-1, Lot 41, in the St. Joseph Cemetery. There is a record on New York Passenger lists that Mary and her son, Elmer, took a trip to Italy on the ship Conte Biancamano and arrived back in the US on October 1, 1919. On their trip back, they had departed from Naples Italy.
