She was 23 years old and was buried in Old Saint Raymond's Cemetery in Bronx Co.


I noticed on another tree they had another wife attached to Alibal a women with only the name Maria and a child. If he had another wife he left behind at age 19 I am sure it would of been in the papers, but if it didn't get leaked to the press then what happened to them? Assuming that tree information is correct.
