Zaccagnini - D'Angelo Connection.....

[peonygirl]

Continuing.....

Death act Crescenzo Morsella – d 1812. One of the hints I got in Ancestry led me to a tree that has the Zaccagnini names. However, no documentation or citations or sources – just names and dates so I am hesitant use this info.
They list the wife of Crescenzo Morsella as Angiola del Censo (b1744 in S.V., d 4 Jan 1793 in SV). They have Crescenzo dates as b 1742 – d 1812). So I looked up the death act in 1812 and found this.

27 Sep 1812
Sindaco Silvestro de Gregorio, before me appeared Donato Antonio Berardi, 30 yr farmer, and Donatangelo de Fainesca (?) 29 yr farmer, stating that on this day died Crescenzo Morsella, son of the deceased Giambattista [M], and ????; widower of ???
Perhaps there is a hint in this act of the mother of Crescenzo and a confirmation of his wife’s name. It is difficult to read….so thank you if you can see it.

Neither Crescenzo's mother or wife are identified, except that they are deceased.
It does state that he leaves 6 children.
His age at death was 70.

I think Donatangelo's surname is "di Tomaso"

Thanks, Tessa. Glad I'm not losing it entirely - I will take it at face value. If he left 6 kids, there has to be a mention of his spouse's name somewhere. The time line jives...
Thanks Erudita - di tomaso makes more sense.

While looking for other records, I came across this death act for one of Maria Valentina Zaccagnini's siblings in 1816... a sister Nicola Zaccagnini, age 1 year and 2 months.

Nice find! Thanks for making the connection. So far, 3 of the 6 children of Crescenzo have a deceased mother listed with no name....the search continues....
I did find another death in 1812 of a Niccolo' Zaccagnini, son of Pelino and Maddalena, who died at 1 year old.

I found the spouse to Crescenzo Morsella. It was in the death act of his child, Camillo Morsella.

The word is conoscente = acquaintance

Mother's name clearly reads Angela di Eugenio ...
