Hello Laura,

My name is Joseph O. Christofaro, formerly from Frankfort NY and currently living in Rome NY. My mother's family immigrated to the United States in the early part of the 20th century, ending up in Frankfort. My mom, Nancy M. DiSano Christofaro was the 2nd oldest of her siblings, being born in 1919. Her older brother, Onofrio DiSano, was a 1st Lt. (posthumously promoted to Captain) in the US Marine Corps during WWII. He and his company were heavily involved in the island hopping campaign in the Pacific (he actually raised the US Flag over Saipan!). My uncle 'Nof' was killed in battle during the first few days of the Iwo Jima invasion. Not only is he not listed as being a veteran of WWII on the web site that you have linked to this page, he is not listed as being KIA either! I find this to be a gross omission and hope that you can aid in getting this error corrected. Thank you very much.

Sincerely,

Joseph O. Christofaro


"My father was Daniel Frank Felshaw, a WWII Veteran raised in Frankfort, NY on Welch Bush Road with his brother George Sherman Felshaw, also a WW II Veteran. My father Daniel Felshaw died in 1953, but his brother George is alive and well. I asked him to review the list and see if anyone is missing or misspelled and I'm happy to forward any communications to him from other veterans or hear from those who knew my dad." Lillian Felshaw Kennedy


Andre Simonette is the uncle of Larry Rocco.

[Note: the original list transcribed on this page appeared in a 1945 newspaper. If you have the name of a Frankfort WII veteran whose name wasn't in the original list, please send in his/her name to the Frankfort town editor.
