I sure hope that is the right article...I am always trying to find connections in other states.
Thank you.

will have to keep checking.  They do not move fast enough for me.  Hopefully
this is your Michele.
Died on Train (News Article)Paper - Morning Herald
March 3, 1905
Louisville, Ky., March 2 - Michael Corso, of No. 131 West Market Street, one
of the best known Italian citizens of Louisville, died this morning on the
Illinois Central train while en route from Tuscan, Arizona.    Then came at
4 o'clock, near Central city, Ky.  The remains were brought hear and taken
to Boden Brothers' undertaking establishment, No. 578 Second Street, to be
prepared for burial.
     Corso had been in ill health for nearly two years, suffering from lung
trouble.
I checked out Arizona to see if there were any births or deaths for the name
Corso but didn't find anything.

Larie, and whoever else out there might be of help.
My second great grandfather, Francesco Corso's Brother Michele Corso was
born in Termini in 1823.  He married Caterina Tedesco in 1844, had 2
Children in Termini (Antonino and GiovanBatista).  He then moved to Palermo
around 1850 and had at least 9 more children there.  Starting in about 1876,
he came to the US (possibly 4 or more times) and by the 1890's settled in
Louisville and I think he died there in 1906 (I have a death index listing
his name, plus the age matches, and I know his children settled there). 
However, his wife Caterina Tedesco disappears.
I can't find her entry to the U.S. on Ancestry.com (if she ever came) and I
can't fine a death index on her either in Termini (TI data base), Palermo
(LDS films) or the U.S.  Since I know she on your Tedesco tree, by any
chance, do you have information on her?
