Re: Mariantonia Lanni

It may have been Marianna - but on her my Grandads birth cert. it says Mariantonia.The problem was that all my ancestors were illiterate and so I think the priests just guessed the spellings! That is why when my Dad was born the priest spelt our surname phonetically, so we became Fashioni's! Are you...

Re: Mariantonia Lanni

No - I am nowhere near London! I am a town mouse. Southport is a sea side town not far from Liverpool. It is funny that you have Sophia Loren as your picture - my sister looks very like her and has been compared to her all her life! What is your Italian connection Dominique?

Re: Mariantonia Lanni

Hi Dominique, I HOPE that is our Mariantonia! But I can't be sure until I get the marriage certificate and check her last name. Is there any way of checking the death records there? We think she died when my Grandad was about 3 or 4 years old which would have been 1900 -1901. This is the first time ...

Re: Mariantonia Lanni

Hi Dominique,
I am just waiting to get a copy of their marriage certificate so that I can find out Mariantonia's father's name. But I understood that she was born in Italy. I will let you know.
Thanks for your help,
Gina.

Hi everyone! My name is Gina Maria Fashioni - but my Grandparents were Fascione - an old priest in Southport couldn't spell the name and they were illiterate so the new spelling stuck!
