Please help me find Nicolo Cao's parents

Post by Dawn »

I have been looking for Nicolo Cao's parents for a long time. Can anyone help find them? Nicolo Cao b. 1820 Friuli- Venezia Italy or 1820 Venice Venezia and died in 1844. His father might be Valentino Cao. Thank you for any help you can give me. Dawn

Hi Tessa, great find the death of Adrianna. Her father was Valentino and her mother Anna Rondina. So no Nicolò's father was Valentino but Adrianna's father.

Adrianna was 70 yrs and 10 months old on july 1884, so her birth could be around oct 1813, but I see just 1 born on 29 Sept 1813 #201 3°register, Domenica Maria Luigia Zuliani daughter of Valentino Zuliani, aged 45, grocer, domiciled in the parish of San Zaccaria at number 4631, and daughter of Anna Maria Rondina 36 old.

Maybe she was more older....

I searched the birth record hoping to find marriage note, but in napoleonic era no marriage noters on the civil records.. what is wonderful is to see the signatures on 1813.. when the large part of people was illiterate, Valentino and his brother in law, witness, was able to read and to write!

Great find, suanj!

Unfortunately, like yourself, my search for the marriage record was also unsuccessful.

I checked earlier birth years for Andrianna and found two siblings born in 1811 (Domenica - 24 June #150 7*) and 1812 (Tommaso - 5 August #159)

There was an Andreanna Zulan in 1909 - father was Andrea Zulan.

In this region was usual to call a child with a first name different from the first nsame on the birth record.
And we cannot more because from 1816 to 1871 no civil records. The poster can just hire a genealogist on place...

Parish registers in Venezia, particularly from churches in the area where Nicolo was born, might list his parents' names. Crazy Cattle 3D
