Information about Maria Ogna

[adam74]

Does anyone have any information like ship manifest for a Maria Ogna ( madden name pancera). or marriage certificate or birth certificate. She came to the United States on September 23,1907. Last residence in Italy is Brescia.

Adam,

How certain are you of that date? Where did it come from?

Looking at other posts regarding your family, I am not convinced that Pancera is the correct surname spelling (we have previously ruled out Pencera as well).

Do you have a date or year of birth for Maria?

Did she marry in Italy or in the US?

Any idea when she married?

What was her husband's given name?

Where did they reside in the US?

Well, sometimes you just get lucky...

Maria Oyna [Ogna] aged 27, travelling with her mother (I suspect really her mother-in-law), also named Maria, aged 55, leaving behind Maria 27's brother and Maria 55's son (son-in-law? something doesn't add up correctly in all this...), Giovanni Panzera. Panzera is a far more common surname in modern Italy than any of the others we have tried thus far; see http://www.paginebianche.it/execute.cgi ... &om=0&l=en

[adam74]

Her first marriage was in Italy to her first husband with the last name Ogna not sure of his first name. Here birthdate is May 6,1880 and sure of the date she came to america.

[adam74]

Her first husband either died in America or Italy we are not sure but her madden name was Maria Pancera daughter of Guiseppe Pancera and Rosa Zanetti.

[johnnyonthespot]

See above. I am now 99% certain the correct spelling is Panzera.

[adam74]

is there any information about Moses Oyna(Ogna)

Adam, given the amount of research you seem to be interested in, I sugeest you consider an Ancestry . com account for several months. You would be amazed at how much information is available to a dedicated researcher these days.

[adam74]

Egregi Signori,

Mi chiamo [your name here], ed abito negli Stati Uniti all'indirizzo sopradetto.

Vi scrivo affinché mi aiutiate a reperire:

* Copia integrale dell'atto di Nascita

per il mio [your relationship to the person - see below]:

* OGNA MOSÈ nato nel Comune di Rezzato, in data [date of birth or 'circa 1884' for example], paternità [his father's given name if you know it else 'incerto'], maternità [mother's full maiden name if you know it "SMITH JANE" else 'incerto']

Vi prego di farmi sapere quanto dovuto per il servizio e per i costi di spedizione.

Distinti saluti,

[your signature]

Birth/marriage/death photocopies of original registry pages are called: Copia integrale dell'atto di Nascita/Matrimonio/Morte. These are more difficult to read but contain lots of additional useful information compared to...

Birth/marriage/death computer-generated (sometimes hand-written) extracts are: Estratto Per Riassunto Per Atto Di Nascita/Matrimonio/Morte

Most comuni do not charge for these documents. Do send a large, self-addressed (but not stamped) envelope if possible; be sure to put "STATI UNITI D'AMERICA - USA" in the final line of your address. It is also a good idea to include a copy of your ID (driver's license, for example) as some comuni want to see some form of ID.
