Giuseppe "Joseph" DeLuise was born to parents Pasquale and Orsola DeLuise. He married Concetta Esposito in an arranged marriage about 1884 and they had eight children born in Naples. Here they ran a hotel, were wealthy and had servants, but lost everything when the hotel burnt down and they had all of their savings hidden in a mattress.
Giuseppe came to the US in the early 1900's, lived at 71 Mulberry St, NY and called himself Joseph. His family followed him to America, a few at a time, all arriving by the end of 1905. By 1915 they had moved to 66-68 Division St on Manhattan Island. Before 1920 they moved into Brooklyn to 63 Sand St and by 1925 they were still in Brooklyn living at 2230 West 6th St. Although he was a gambler, he was a really nice person who had deep blue eyes. He worked as a cook, a janitor, a porter in a candy factory, took up photography and was retired by 1930.
Joseph DeLuise died of lobar pneumonia at 11:30pm on February 26, 1933 at his home on West 6th St, two months after his wife's death. He was buried with her on March 1st in Calvary Cemetery in Woodside, Queens County, NY.
