All of my family lived on Taylor Street. We even have a plaque on one of the buildings dedicated to the Rocco family and the DeLaurentis family. It’s by the Rosebud restaurant. My Uncle Sol Tirtilli owned a bar on Taylor Street.
John Tirtilli owned a very large home on Polk and Ashland. Many memories as a child! I’m looking for Dr. Angelo Rose. He was a dentist on Taylor Street. I’m looking for any of his family members. If any one could help me find any family members, I would appreciate it. Thank you.
I’m Carmen Tiritilli. Sol’s son. Lived on Taylor Street until 1964. I lost touch with the Rocco family.
