Pampalone - Vivona Marriage

Post by sacesta »

For a few weeks I have been looking for the records of marriage and baptism for a Domenico Paolo Pampalone. Unable to find either record, but finding a Didacus Pampalone in the indices for both baptisms and marriages, I went back to the source of Domenico's name, the marriage record of Antonina Pampalone, his daughter.

Antonina's father's name was very difficult to read on this document and it looked to be Domenico Paolo. Upon closer inspection, I saw that it might also be read as Don Didacus (Diego) Pampalone. So this morning, at the FHC, I looked for and found the two records for Didacus below.

I've deciphered most of the genealogical information from these documents but I could use some confirmation.

The couple appear to have been married on the 14th of July, 1771.
Parents of the groom are Blasio? (What does that translate to?) and Margarita Costa.
Parents of the bride seem to be Matthew? and Antonina Accardo (or maybe Accordo?)

Didacus was born and baptized on the 7th of Oct 1742.

Thanks again for your help.

Blasio is Biagio in Italian; bride's father is Matteo; mother's surname is Accardo

Thanks Erudita! Can you tell me if the parents were living or deceased at the time of the marriage?

As far as I can tell, Steve, the parents were all alive and of this town and Mother Church.

My grandparents were Stefano and Antonina Vivona (Pampalone) from Calatifimi. Is anyone on this related to them? I’m a little confused as to how this forum works! Thank You:)
