Need some help - FERRIGNO & MARGIOTTA family

Post by manuel9martin »

Hellow

I'm trying to complete the last branch of my family tree, but I'm having some troubles.

I'm looking for Carmelo Ferrigno and Vincenza Margiotta/Letto, I know that they were born and married in Mazzarino, Caltanissetta. They had three children in Mazzarino (Gaetana, Luigi and Santo) and other in Argentina (Rosa, the youngest, who was born in 1914). Vincenza died in 1975 in Argentina, so I estimate she born arround 1890.

I found an old letter sent to Carmelo Margiotta and Vincenza Barrese, I think those persons were the parents of Vincenza Margiotta, but this is a personal speculation, I dont know for sure.

I searched mainly in FamilySearch and Geneanet, but neither of these had information about Mazzarino. So I looked in others small pages but I was not lucky either.

Thanks everyone for all the help.

This (#151):

seems to be the baptismal record of Gaetana, born Mar 3rd, 1911, the daughter of Carmelo, and Vincenza Di Dio Leto. Di Dio Leto might be a foundling surname, who was then adopted by Margiotta's.
