Cafarelli family from Italy, do you know us?

Cafarelli family from Italy, do you know us?

LECA01
Italian wedding party. From comparison with other family photos, our contributor believes that the older man sitting at front right is probably Domenico/Dominick Cafarelli. Dominick was the oldest son of Vincenzo/Vincent Cafarelli and Grazia/Grace Sarubbi. Dominick and Grace were born in Accettura, Matera, Basilicata, Italy, and Vincent was born in the nearby town of Ferrandina. Vincenzo's mother, Maria Gaetana Mastronardi, came from the town of Craco, and Grace's father, Giuseppe Sarubbi, came from Stigliano. Grace's grandparents in Accettura had the surnames DiLorenzo and Lacovara.  We cannot identify any of the other people in this photo, but wonder if the woman at the front left was Beatrice Viggiano Cafarelli, daughter of Leonardo Viggiano and Filomena Langone, and the bride was perhaps her younger sister. Dominick and Beatrice both immigrated from Accettura, Dominick in 1886 at the age of nine and Beatrice in 1900. They married in New York City in 1902 and moved to the Bronx between 1910 and 1920. They had no children. Dominick later raised a family with Vitina Cuti from Ciminna, Palermo, Sicily, but Vitina does not appear in this photo.
