Thanks again Adelfio,
By the way, One of the interesting things I saw in the new info you gave me is that Vincenzo Rappa's mother was a Cusumano and Bennedetto Occhipinti's mother was also a Cusumano.
So I wonder if Vinenzo Rappa and Benedetto Occhipinti were cousins and that's how our Maria Antonia Salvia ended up marrying Vincenzo after Benedetto died?

Thanks, I'm not sure where that last Vincenzo fits on my tree. Looks like he's the oldest so far. @adelfio

@adelfio Marty, do you think you could find any info on this Catherine Barretta?
I had my DNA tested and I'm related to some Barrettas, but I don't know how to connect them on my tree.
Thanks!

Thank you so much Marty! You're amazing!

[Lisapeters65]

Oops, something's wrong. I went to add Antonio Cusumano and Girolama DiMarco
as the parents of Guiseppe Cusumano,
But Antonio was already on my tree with a wife named Giuseppa Porvolento as the parents of Elizabeth Cusumano, who was on a record that you found for me in the past and she would be my second great grandmother.
So now I'm confused.

[Lisapeters65]

Oops, I think I messed up that last message. Yes I had Porvolento as his wife, but that was the mother of Giuseppe I think. I don't know where I got that info. I thought it was from you but I'm not sure.

[Lisapeters65]

Hey Marty! I didn't see this last record until just now! (3 months later!) the one about Domenico and Ninfa.
Thanks for all your hard work! @adelfio

Edit: I'm losing my mind. I must've seen it because we talked about it afterward.
Oh well, I didn't add the info on Ninfas parents to my tree until just now.

[Lisapeters65]

Marty, @adelfio, On the bottom of page 1 of this post, you found the marriage record for Domenico Rappa and Ninfa Amato. Ninfa's father was Antonino Amato and her mother was Giuseppa (no maiden name).
I put them on my Ancestry Tree and hints are coming up for Antonino with records for an Antonino Amato with a wife Guiseppa Pecoraro.
This Giuseppa was born and died in Prizzi, Palermo and her father was Mariano, and mother was Maria Carmela Algozini.
Other records show that they had sons, Paolo and Louis.
Could this be the right Giuseppa who would be my 5th great grandmother?

Marty, I know! You are much better than Ancestry! I don't know why I pay them.
How is this website funded? Is there a way to make a donation?
I have many more questions, but sometimes I feel like I'm bothering you. Even if I could find these records on my own, I still wouldn't be able to read them by myself.
So thank you very much for all the help you give!
