Lucia Pettoni

[kevynne]

Lucia Pettoni was born in Italy,probably in the north of Italy around 1870.
She married Charles Reader ,but we don't know where or when.
We are hoping that there may be some Pettoni family somewhere that is missing Lucia from there tree and we can exchange family information. Would like to hear from any Pettoni anywhere.
thanks

I found this record through Family Search and might be a possible match for Lucia (Lucy) being married to Charles Reader. It lists the film number if you want to order it for viewing.

suanj can you look and see what you think. Birth year is off, but only Charles Reader

Lucy READER

Dear elizabeth, maybe kevynne ca say us what is the year of emigration of lucia and where emigrated, if in New Zealand or other country... so maybe we can help better, kisses, suanj

Thank you for your help.
Are there places where birth ,death and marriage records are held in the regions of Lombardy and Latina and liguria.
it is possible that this family of Lucia Pettoni and Charles Reader went to South Africa sometime in the late 1800s.

Hi Kevnne,

Like suanj said, in the 1800's almost all of the Pettoni's that left Italy were from the town of Tolentino - province of Macerata - region of Marche or the town of Bagnorea (Bagnoregio) - province of Viterbo - region of Lazio.

You can try the LDS church microfilms and see if you can come up with something. Here is the link.

You will need to check for a Family History Center (FHC) near you in order to order the films and to view the films. Here is the link.

Here are a couple of possible manifests for Charles. Maybe you will recognize the children's names if this is the right person.
