1714 Rivelo

[darkerhorse]

In this 1714 Rivelo, Agatina, head of household, is recorded as a widow, so would this be her maiden surname or married surname?

Also, what is the age of her son Sebastiano, and is her neighborhood St. Miceli?

[liviomoreno]

Pitruzzello is the married surname, her maiden surname is Vitale
Son is 17

Thanks.

I do remember hearing that, on some documents, widows could be referred to by their husband's surname.

Is her surname actually Volante or Valante, instead of Vitale? Her parents being Mauto and Vita...

I am reading parents deceased Mauro and Vita Valente.
