Ancestry lookup. please.

Post by sigel7 »

While doing the free index search on Ancestry, I ran across something of interest but since I dont have a world wide subscription, I cant look. Would someone mind posting the results for:
Maria Maddalena Mantegani died 1893 from como.....?

I find it interesting because My grandmother's name was Anna Maddalena Morandi, but her mothers maiden name Sanita Mantegani and the matching middle names seems interesting as I have never seen that before.

I appreciate it,

Thank you

Catherina, maybe you should be aware that Maddalena is not a surname. The two people that you mention are Maria Maddalena Mantegani and Anna Maddalena Morandi. The surname is highlighted. Maria Maddalena and Anna Maddalena are first names.

Wildspirit, thank you. Being that I could only read her name, could you tell me if they mention her mother, father or children?? I did see a Guiseppe, but I think that was her spouse. Any help is always appreciated.

Liviomoreno, yes I am aware of the different last names. Its just that my grandmothers mothers maiden name was Mantegani and this lady was a Mantegani and it was of interest because of the given name. Since Italians keep the given names in the family it led to me believe that this Maria could be a great aunt or great great grandmother, depending on when she was born etc.. I am not sure how I will know for sure unless her sister or daughter was Sanita Mantegani, but its a start, somewhere to look.

Again, thanks to all

Catherine

Yes it does thank you. By the dates and name, there is a good chance she is my great grandmothers sister.

Thank you,
