Surname VIDONI from Sammardenchia

[Carolus]

I say hello to all searchers,

this is my first posting in this Forum and I hope that one or some members can help me. I can follow back my Vidoni forefather from Klagenfurt (Carinthia) back to Jajce (Bosnia) back to Klanec near Kozina (Slovenia) back to Sammardenchia.

My great-grandfather Antonius Metlika-Vidoni, born 21.1.1877 in Klanec (Slovenia), died 1931 in Jajce. He was born as Metlika and died as Vidoni. Some of his brothers and sisters were born as Metlika some as Vidoni.

My great-great-grandfather Carolus Metlika-Vidoni, born 9.5.1853 in ? (I don't know) died 1896 in Donji Vakuf (Bosnia). In old documents his name is always changing: Metlika, Vidoni, and Metlika-Vidoni. On an old document there is only the name of his mother: Joanna Metlika. Carolus was born illegitimate. From a Vidoni relative I got the information and a picture of a half-brother of Carolus Metlika-Vidoni. Through that relative I found out that the father of both brothers was Mathias Vidoni. So that means that Mathias Vidoni and Joanna Metlika had a son named Carolus. But they were not married, because Joanna Metlika died young. Years later Mathias Vidoni married another woman and they legitimate children.

Mathias Vidoni (father of Carolus) was born 19.3.1823 in Sammardenchia, died ? in ? .

Dominicus Vidoni (father of Mathias), I have no datas about him. I only know that he was married to Maria Cussic. I don't where and when.

Funny is, that there are places near Udine with the name Sammardenchia. One Sammardenchia is in the north of Udine, the other one in the south of Udine. Near Sammardenchia in the north of Udine I even found a small village named "Case Vidoni".

And now I need your help. I want to find out:

Which place is the right Sammardenchia for me?
Where and when did Joanna Metlika die?
Where and when did Mathias Vidoni die?
Where and when was Dominicus Vidoni born?
Where and when did Dominicus Vidoni die?
Where and when was Maria Cussic born?
Where and when did Maria Cussic die?
Where and when did Dominicus Vidoni and Maria Cussic marry?

How shall I continue my searching here in the area of Udine?

Is anyone in this Forum also interested in searching for the surname Vidoni in this area? Maybe I will find some relatives.

I would be glad for answers.

Hello,

I need your help. I was on www.ellisisland.org searching for the name Vidoni and I found 2 of them from Sammardenchia:

Manifest for la Lorraine
Sailing from Havre

0002. Vidoni, Ferdinando M 35y M Italy Lamardeuchio, Italy

Manifest for Guglielmo Pierce
Sailing from Naples

0018. Vidoni, Giov. Batt. di Luigi M 32y W Italy Samordenchia Ciseris, Ity.

I am sure that Lamerdeuchio and Samordenchia is real Sammardenchia.

BUT !?!?!?!?

I read that those manifests often have more than one pages. From both manifests I found, I could only find the second site. I clicked "previous" and "next". But no first page.

Is this my mistake. Or are there no first pages from both manifests.

I would be very glad for help.

Here are both pages of Giov. Batt.'s manifest

http://www.ellisisland.org/EIFile/popup ... &line=0018

http://www.ellisisland.org/EIFile/popup ... &line=0018

Often on the Ellis Island site the second page displays first.

Here is Ferdinando's. The first page appears to be missing. Perhaps someone with Ancestry will be able to pull it up.

Hello,

I need your help again. I am not very successful in searching my Vidoni roots from Sammardenchia. There are two places near Udine with the name Sammardenchia. One Sammardenchia is in the north of Udine, the other one in the south of Udine. I started in the south of Udine. Over 2 months ago I wrote a letter asking for help to the following address:

Parrocchia
S. LEONARDO (Sammardenchia)
mons. Giuseppe Faidutti
P.zza XXIV Maggio - , 33050 Pozzuolo del Friuli (UD)

I found that address on:

http://www.webdiocesi.chiesacattolica.i ... ifp=&vis=1

But till now I got no answer. So, I want to write a letter to the church in the north of Udine, to:

Parrocchia
S. LORENZO MARTIRE (Coia e Sammardenchia)
don Bruno Buzzulini
dott. mons. Duilio Corgnali
Via del Castello - Coia, 33017 Tarcento (UD)

I found that address on:

http://www.webdiocesi.chiesacattolica.i ... ifp=&vis=1

I am not sure if those addresses are correct. Because I didn't find them on the site of www.paginebianche.it. There I found:

parrocchia for Pozzuolo del Friuli:

Parrocchia Di Pozzuolo (abitazione Del Parroco)
33050 Pozzuolo Del Friuli (UD) - Via Mortegliano, 12

Parrocchia Di S. Michele (abitazione Del Parroco)
33050 Pozzuolo Del Friuli (UD) - Piazza Della Chiesa, 1

Parrocchia Di Sant'Andrea Apostolo Scuola Materna E Nido
33050 Pozzuolo Del Friuli (UD) - Via Del Mercato, 15

Parrocchia Di Terenzano (abitazione Del Parroco)
33050 Pozzuolo Del Friuli (UD) - Piazza Terenzio, 3

Parrocchia Madonna Del Conforto Abitazione Del Parroco
33050 Cargnacco (UD) - Via Alessandro Manzoni, 26

parrocchia for Tarcento:

Parrocchia Di Loneriacco
33017 Tarcento (UD) - Piazza Roma, 1

Parrocchia Di S. Eufemia (abitazione Del Parroco)
33017 Segnacco (UD) - Via Alfieri, 55

Parrocchia Di S. Giuliana (abitazione Del Parroco)
33017 Tarcento (UD) - Via Bernadia, 58

Parrocchia Di S. Giuseppe (abitazione Del Parroco)
33017 Tarcento (UD) - Via Del Colle

Parrocchia Di S. Leonardo C. (abitazione Del Parroco)
33017 Tarcento (UD) - Via Paolo Zucchi, 35

Parrocchia Di S. Pietro Apostolo (abitazione Del Parroco)
33017 Tarcento (UD) - Via Alfonso Morgante, 6

So, what would you do? Shall I write letters to all churches I found on www.paginebianche.it? Are the addresses on www.webdiocesi.chiesacattolica.it correct? Is there an institution above the churches which could help me to be successful?

I would be very glad for each help.
