Barbara was born in ItalyG in about 1891.2
In 1910 Salvatore was living in German Township, Fayette County, PennsylvaniaG, and was recorded in the census as Samuel Sechetti, a coal miner, aged 32 and born in Italy. Living with him were his wife Nunziata, 30, a boarding house keeper, and their daughter Josephine, aged one. There were five male boarders in the household, all coal miners born in Italy.8
In 1920 he was living at New Salem Road, Menallen, Fayette County, PennsylvaniaG, and was recorded as Sam Sackett, a coal miner, aged 42 and born in Italy. Living with him were his wife "Rosy" [Annunziata], 40, and their children, Josephine, 11, Mary, 10, Joe, 8, Pete, 6, Tony, 2, and Louie, aged 3 months.9
In 1930 he was living at 113 Waverly Avenue, Elyria, Lorain County, OhioG, and was recorded as Joseph Sacketta [sic], a machinist, aged 53 and born in Italy.

Salvatore's use of the names Sam (1920) and Joseph (1930) appear to have been temporary. There may have been confusion with his son Joseph in the 1930 census record, both being described as machinists in a screw factory.
