Jean-Baptiste Salvaye Captain of the regiment in Pignerol

As a nation state, Italy has emerged only in 1871. Until then the country was politically divided into a large number of independant cities, provinces and islands. The currently available evidences point out to a dominant Etruscan, Greek and Roman cultural influence on today's Italians.

Thank you for your prompt reply and references. I am a direct descendent of Pierre Salvaye and spouse Marie Catherine Roy. I was able to trace my ancestery directly to Pierre Salvaye. However, I encountered a roadblock with Jean Baptiste Salvaye. We always believed that we were Canadian French and not Italian. These references confirm that we were originally Italian. How can I find out more information about Jean Baptiste Salvaye? Who were the parents? Where were they from?

Hi

Thanks for the additional information. I have one more question.

Jean Baptiste Salvaye son was named Pierre Salvaye Tremont. Does Tremont represent a region? Is Tremont something that is significant?

Thank you

Hi: I not know this info, but TREMONTI is an italian surname (it means 3 mountains).
-I task not Tremont is an place, why Pierre SALVAYE DIT TREMONT http://www.themarxfamily.net/roots/526.HTM , probable an nickname
-or:" A few examples to prove a point, on October 23rd 1673, Notary Jean Baptiste Adhémar, from his home in Sorel, draws up the marriage contract of Vincent Moriceau, residing in Autray, and of Marie Anne Beaumont, residing in Sorel; he notes the presence of: "Marie Leroux épouse de Jacques Énaud-dit-Canada, en compagnie de messieurs Pierre Salvaye de Tremont, Pierre Vallet et Joseph Lamy". http://www.geninfo.org/GenInfo/Jacques_ ... Canada.htm and "de" is surname of family;
-or: also possible "Du Tremont"; in the past Du Tremont surname was present in Isere area around 1674 in ST_PIERRE DE MEAROTZ town ;in the past ,and currently but various, is Italy-French area-Rhône Alpes ). sorry I've not others info, regards, suanj

Re: Capt. Jean-Baptiste Salvay

I am also a direct descendant of Capt. Jean-Baptiste Salvai/Salvay. The Salvai/Salvay family is from Piemonte, Italy. From my research, I found that the surname derives from Arabic. [The Saracens(Arabs from North Africa) conquered Piemonte in the 10th century.] Check out the shield part of a Salvai/Salvay coat of arms by visiting:

http://xoomer.virgilio.it/blasonpiemon/Pagina8.html

(It's the ugliest shield I have ever seen. LOL.)

Thank you for replying. After many years of posting request for info on various websites, I was thrilled to hear from another descendant of the Salvay(e) family. In fact my mothers maiden name was Salvail. Over the years in Canada the translation of Salvaye was changed to Salvail.

I viewed the coat of arms and agree with you that it is ugly!! Caveman???

Your reply, gave me some information that I was unaware of. My mother always believed she was of French-Canadian descent and would not consider the fact that Pierre Salvay(e) was born in Pinerolo, Italy. Now I am going to tell her that the Salvay family name originated from North Africa. This ought to be good.

Would you be willing to share any of your information with me? and of course I would do likewise.


Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thank you

Re: Salvai/y

Post by cchjs »

Hi Srossmeisl,

Thanks for your reply. Salvai/y) is a Piemontese name, not North African. It simply comes from an Arabic word. I don't yet know what that word is. As you may know, some Italian names come from Arabic as a result of Saracen raids and occupations of the Italian peninsula. When the Arabs left, they left their mark on the language and toponymy(place names). The Salva(i/y) name may be derived from the name of a place, an occupation, or an actual person, etc. The name is still predominately found in Piemonte, Italy to this very day.

Did you ever get a copy of Jean-Baptiste's birth certificate?

Thanks again.

Hi cchjs

Yes I have a birth certificate but unfortunately I cannot read it. Friends of mine went to Italy a few years ago and took pictures of St. Donat in Pinerolo and also brought back a copy of the birth certificate.

Looks like the date is May 1624 -- it reads Giovanni Battista Salvays, figlio di Emanuele e Filippa Salvays. I cannot make out the rest of it.

I also asked for the marriage certificate of Jean Baptiste and Jacqueline Bellecote but the keeper of the books could not locate it at that time.

Hey Stross,

So who are Giovanni Battista Salvays, figlio di Emanuele e Filippa Salvays? Do you know if and how they are related to Jean-Baptiste Salvay? Have you ever tried writing to Italy for more info? How far can your mom trace her genealogy back to Jean-Baptiste?

Thanks.

Hi

I think Giovanni Battista is Jean-Baptiste Salvay. Seems to fit -- born 1624 and married in 1650. He would have been 26 years old when he married.

No I have not written to Italy for more information. However, I do plan on it at some point.

We can trace our family all the way back to Jean-Baptiste through his son Pierre Salvaye.

Whereabouts in the US are you located?

Re: Giovanni Battista Salvai aka Jean-Baptiste

Post by cchjs »

Hi Stross,

Thank you so much for supplying me with Jean-Baptiste’s real name. It appears that both Giovanni Battista and Jean-Baptiste are one in the same - both mean John the Baptist. And, you’re right; the dates do match. I’m really excited about finally learning the names of his parents! (A translation site helped me understand the Italian.) Never in a million years did I think I would find out about them! I really appreciate your help.

Wow! I think it’s soooo amazing that you know your entire family lineage from the Italian Salvais to your Mom. I hardly know anything about my heritage. I know the names of some of Pierre's(real name, Pietro?) descendants, but I don’t know which line leads directly to me. I found some of the info I included in my first post only a few months ago, after years of research.

Do you have any information about Jacqueline Bellecote(or Cotte, Bellecotte, Cote…I’m sure you’ve heard them all.)? Do you know what her real name is? It's most likely an Italian name that was converted to French, as was the case with her husband. Such factors make it very difficult to find accurate genealogical information. I wish we could get our hands on the marriage certificate.

Thanks again,

:D
