Today I decided to do a search on the Winnebago County Genealogy Online website with the last name "Mannina" for the years 1923 - 1926 and see what came up. A birth record for "Vincenza Mannina" resulted so I decided to buy it because I had a hunch it had to be somehow related to our family. The record number is 3540156. Here is the record:

Rockford, Illinois - I believe that the record is the birth record of their son James Vincent Mannino, and there was a language barrier so the child's name was incorrectly written as Vincenza. The rest of the information is definitely the right people and the birthdate matches up. They were living at 910 Cedar Street in Rockford, Il.
