Re: DOMINICK PODESTA from GENOA born 1840

Hi Jamie We have since found out from my brother's research that Dominick did indeed marry Rosina Annoni born in Clifton in 1854 and married her in Birmingham 1875. He must have arrived to the UK between 1871 and then since he isn't shown in the 1871 census, but clearly in the 1881 census. We believ...

Re: DOMINICK PODESTA from GENOA born 1840

Hi Jamie, We have since found out the following: You are quite right that Dominick DID marry Rosina Annoni (but we can't find her on the 1861 census or the actual marriage certificate which might reveal his birthdate) Rosina was registered on her birth certificate as being born in Clifton in 1854. W...

Re: DOMINICK PODESTA from GENOA born 1840

We think he came over with a cousin, from what we have gathered, Jamie. There is no Irish connection in the family. I do appreciate your help with this.

Re: DOMINICK PODESTA from GENOA born 1840

Hi JAMIE Thank you for the list of marriages. I wonder why it does not include the marriage to Rosina Beacham since that is registered on the ancestry.com website. This seems to be the most likely as they all moved to Manchester, which is correct as far as relatives have indicated. The Annoni name s...

Re: DOMINICK PODESTA from GENOA born 1840

Hi daddymuzza,
I don't think this family of podestas is linked to me, but there do seem to be an awful lot of Podestas! I wonder if anyone knows of Dominick's forebears in Italy itself. I used to work in Italy so that would be fascinating to me.
Thanks for your help.

Re: DOMINICK PODESTA from GENOA born 1840

Hi Jamie Thank you for responding. The Rosina we have identified is Rosina Beacham, daughter of Margaret Beacham and sister to John, who most seem to fit with the Dominick Podesta timeline etc. He was on a vessel in Swansea, awaiting immigration we think, then went to Portsmouth. He is shown in all ...
