Census Record

1940 Census - Mary Iacofano Household and Joseph Iacofano Household, Cleveland, Ohio

Checked High

24 April 1940

1940 census page, Sheet 25-A, for Block 17, Ward 19, Cleveland, Cuyahoga County, Ohio. Two Iacofano households appear: (A) Mary Iacofano (widowed, age 54, born Italy) heads a household with sons Biagio (age 25, Helper/Beer Truck), Arthur (age 17), Lawrence (age 12) and daughter Dorothy (age 15); (B) nearby, Joseph Iacofano (age 22, Ohio-born, married, Helper/Beer Truck) lives with wife Rose Marie (age 19). This is a strong proposed source for Arthur in Mary Iacofano's household and for likely collateral sibling leads.
