Francesca Di Matteo 1st marriage, Collesano, Sicily

Post by Marlena »

Hello,
I have found an index in Collesano stating Francesca was married to Rosario Maria De Paulo. When I find the actual document is has different info with some names crossed out.
Would you please let me know if this is her first husband?
I do know Francesca marriage in 1877 to Vincenzo Culotta states she was a widow.
Thank you , Marlena

Francesca’s name appears on the next page, top of left column. She was age 23, born in Trabbia, daughter of Giovanni. Her mother Gaetana. I’m having trouble deciphering her mother’s surname.

Erudita74,
Her mother was Gaetana Lima. I see now they crossed off Francesca on the first page due to an error, as it should have been Rosario's mother in that space.

Thank you again!

By the way, the portale antenati has more recent records for Collesano. Mmogno found the marriage record for a son Vincenzo Gulotta whose mother was lo Presti, on another thread of yours. I don’t think you ever saw the info.
