    Notes:

    Syracuse NY Journal - 1/4/1930

    Defying the mysterious bombhurlers
    who have thrown explosive
    missies at his home at 100 Olive
    st. five times in the last three
    months. Homer Michael Boccaccio,
    22, and Miss Margaret Ann Corkran,
    19, 100-1/2 Olive st„ were married
    In St. Brigid's Church this
    morning.
    Although both have narrowly escaped
    injury in the series of bombings,
    which created a furor in the
    west end of the city, the couple decided
    not to allow a small thing like
    five bombings to interrupt the
    course of their romance.
    An one time during the investigation
    of the bombings police were
    working on the theory that the romance,
    which was revealed in the
    city clerk's office, might have been
    the cause of the bombing. They
    could find no evidence to substantiate
    this belief.
    The first explosion occurred on
    Oct. 4. The second took place on
    the following night, the third three
    days later, another on Oct
    the most recent one on Dec. 18.
    Miss Corkran was sitting in the
    front window of the house when
    the last explosion occurred. Although
    the building was shaken by
    the blast, she escaped uninjured.
    Homer Boccaccio was in the home,
    owned by his brother, Anthony, a
    former deputy sheriff, on several of
    the occasions when bombs were
    exploded.
    They were married by Rev. Edward
    A. McDowell, assistant pastor
    of St. Brigid's Church. Miss Corkr
    ran said she is the daughter of
    George W. Corkran and Boccaccio
    said he is the son of Mrs. Amadia
    Boccaccio and that he is employed
    by the Onondaga Pottery-
