Calling in for updates @Anizio
Has that complicated problem found its solution? and How?

Mr Mikenz,
The surname was present only in the form SALVATORI (notice the little diff) in and near Loreto since '700. I can enumerate not one, but several families carring surname SALVATORI around the 1840 period. Note that the amount of possible connections rise rapidly if the look for any ...

Thanks to my pals a lot of information is already at hand.

Here I'm tackling the last big question in the original request:
I would also like to find out where Erina and Matteo were married. They were living in Sicily when they left for America, but I believe that she was originally from a town ...

Mr(s) LyndaN,
my pals have already dug up any online result. Others ways to find out... could be a trip & research, or someone-for-hire, etc

By the way, I uncovered some details in my time.

Luciana Furiasse lived in Castelfidardo, AN, Italy. She was born 1926 .

Eugenio family had two additional ...

Mr Tanner,
Here's a link for her:

grab directions, telephone, etc
When you'll reach it eventually, look for the baptism in the registers, cause I'm unable to guess which family Mariano belongs to ...

I've found those parents. Pietro Angelini and Maria Mancini lived in Ascoli Piceno around 1895 with 7 childrens. Let's draw the whole family:

The town of Ronco Biellese in Piedmont has 9 yellow lilies, blue shield. And a tower in it which you didn't mention, so a mismatch.

Bovolini family in Veneto. It has 9 yellow lilies on plain blue shield. Lilies arranged in 3,3,3 formation, what a ...

Let's try in another way: could you record how you (or a true anglosaxon) would pronounce VINANEA? Let's have Italian speakers hear it, and propose better approximations...

Yes, Pallotta is a common surname in the country of Macerata. Not just the city. In the end, that reference could point to a birthplace somewhere in or near Macerata.

Adoption didn't require paper at that time. Still, some adoptions left traces.
In your case, I suggest you weight the implications of being part of a noble house. Nobles often left will(s). To be nomitated heir (full/partial) in Giuseppe's will, Pietro has to be a legal-child since it was not a ...

Wrong.
He's born in Fermo. He was in S.Elpidio a Mare at the time of call for arms.
No links to Porto S.Elpidio.

It also exposes a migration Fermo->S.Elpidio-a-Mare between 1888-1907.

It is Montesecco under Pergola (Pesaro) , definitely.
Bad news is: town records starts in 1866. You'll have to try with the church records. And that means another trouble since....

Church: S. Sebastiano
Population: 32

...is not enough for keep a Priest. Either all parish registers where moved ...

Montesecco was a village indeed.

No need to travel to Marche this time (although nice to see).
Montesecco is inside Rome - in memories, at least. Today's called FIDENE , in Municipio 4.

The parish is S.Felicità e Figli Martiri, have a look:
