Falsetti

Post by Nesimon1 »

Hello,
I'm looking for information for Gaetano Falsetti, born 5 August 1896 in Cosenzo (I don't know if that's the province or the specific town), Italy. I'm looking for access to a birth certificate, ideally. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your help.

There is a family tree on Ancestry.
Wife - Rachella Cora Ann Falsetti

Gaetano's birthplace is listed as "Serra Aiello"

Is this your Gaetano?


If, yes, then here is the birth act of Gaetano in Serra d'Aiello in 1896.
#35
Dated 6 August...born on 5 August to
Giuseppe Falsetto, 23, farmer, of this town; and to Rosaria Pino, his wife.

AND...

Here is the marriage in 1894 of
Giuseppe Falsetto Iusca with Rosaria Pino

#1
Dated 11 March at the town office in Serra D'Aiello
Groom: Giuseppe Falsetto Iusca, 20, farmer born in this town, residing there, son of deceased Gaetano, and of Maria Benestante, residing in this town.
Bride: Rosaria Pino, 18, farmer born in Aiello, residing in this town, daughter of Luigi who resides in this town, and of Antonia Sdao, residing there.
Publication of the banns of marrigage was on 4 and 11 of February.
Present at the marriage was the mother of the groom, and the parents of the bride.

NOTE***
While Gaetano's second surname certainly looks like "Iusca" - I cannot find it in the town. However, I do find the name Fusca in the town today; and Falsetto (with an "o") would be the primary surname.

EDIT TO ADD***

Here is the birth of Gaetano's father, Giuseppe Falsetto Iusca, in 1873 in Serra D'Aiello
#35
Dated 30 September 1873 -
Appearing before the official was Gaetano Falsetto Iusca [son of deceased Giacomo], age 34, farmer residing here, to present a male child who he declared was born on 29 of this month at 4 PM, to his wife Maria Benestante [daughter of deceased Giuseppe], residing with him. The child was born at home at contrada Timpone, and was given the name GIUSEPPE.

Notation in the column indicates that Giuseppe Falsetto died in Serra D'Aiello on 11 May 1956, Act #2 (looks like Part Supplementary)
It is interesting that in the death notation for Giuseppe, the second surname seems to have evolved into "Fusca" :-)
