In Ellis Island (www.ellisisland.org) it appears as italian. But apparently in Italy this surname doesn't exist anylonger.
In the Mormon Site (www.familysearch.com) it appears as British.
In my opinon it sounds sicilian but indications are contradictory. not clear.

I am more convinced now that you should think at Cornwall or even Ireland for your researches!

I believe we can rule out Cornwall and Ireland, though the name might be found in those places. Some other European country perhaps, or even Asia.
