Angela Minichilli/o Morte

Post by NickAndreola »

Just starting to dig into the 1810 Morte records. Here is the index (separate from the records) page 1: https://antenati.cultura.gov.it/ark:/12 ... 97/w67BGPb

#1 Giuseppe Maria Fiore, 19 Jan, 1 month, di Michele e Rosaria Bernardi.
#2 Angela Minichillo wife of Giovanni Tosches, 28 Jan, 56 years, di Paolo e Briggida Valente.

Here are the actual records: https://antenati.cultura.gov.it/ark:/1 ... 90/wjxEemD
#1 Angela Minichilli, wife of Giovanni (di Pietro) Tosches, daughter of Leonardo age 70 e Brigitta Valente age 50 of the town of S. Paolo......
#2 Giuseppe Maria Fiore, 29 Jan, 10 days, son of Michele age 24 e Rosaria Bernardi age 22.

From #3 on the records seem to make sense and relate well to the index. The record for Angela Minichilli/o is confusing to me--her mother can't be 50 if she is 56, is her father Leonardo the grocer.....?
I'd appreciate any help to sort that record out!

BTW: S. Paolo would likely be San Paolo di Civitate.....I've encountered a fair number of marriages etc with people from there in my Casalvecchio di Puglia research.

It's not easy to say...
Of course, records themselves are more accurate than indexes, that might have been written later, with possible copy errors.
As to Angela's mother, maybe 50 is her age when she passed away (though that's not explicitly written in the record).
And, last but not least, deaths were declared by people who didn't always know the deceased and their family, so their declarations often were guesses of illiterate people.

Here is the processetti of the marriage of Giovanni Tosche and Angela Minichillo's son, Leonardo, in 1822.
It includes the death acts of both parents (Giovanni was also deceased by 1822), and the death act of his paternal grandfather. This should help with some ages and dates.
