Pia Lombardini was killed in March 1905 by Gosto Padittini. This happened in the Trimountain, Houghton MI area at an Italian christening. Looking for information on Gosto Padittini. I found an article from March 29, 1905 in the Ft. Wayne Sentinel.

I suggest you to contact local library or state archive, they may have newspapers of that time all microfilmed

Hi Deb,

Can you check the name again? Though the given name Gusto does exist... maybe it could also be Agostino, Gustave... trying to find something...

Ft. Wayne Sentinel - Isn't that a newspaper from Indiana?

Does the article give his age?

Good Morning Maria,
Yes, the Ft. Wayne Sentinel is in Indiana. It was dated March 29, 1905. I don't know why it was there but that is where I found it. It didn't give ages just the name and circumstances. Shows it as Gosto Padittini. I am guessing that Pia was about 26. Thanks for the name suggestions. I will try that. I couldn't find him on Ellis Island either.

According to the earlier site Maria posted, the Itaian name for Fannie is Filippa.

Hi Nuccia, Thank you!

I had completely forgotten who Fanny was... so back to page 1 of this post!

Just to recap...

Pia Lombardini's brother was named Gervasio-

Gervasio's 2nd marriage was to Fanny Baiocchi (who was also a sister of Gervasio's first wife...)

Gervasio's first wife was.... Jenny Baiocchi

Gervasio had 2 wives. Both of them Baiocchi. His first wife died and he married her sister 4 months later. So much for a long mourning period.

pj01cj02, thought you should know...

Trish (brujaojos) also sent me an entire page of the newspaper the story was in... the same one you had quoted from. I can email it to you if you wish.

Nuccia has been looking for an article about Pia Giuli.

But what a story eh?

Oh yes... I had also wondered if the name Gusto Pedittini was a typo and should have been Gusto Pelligrini... but variations of Pedittini do come up on the Ellis website...

The article said Padittini. Are you saying you think Pedittini? Will look further for that name. Thanks Maria!
Deb

[mfjp]

Yes, the article does say Padittini.. my "Pedittini" was a typo...

Could be anything... even Pelligrini...

Patadino seems more common... trying to see if this name or something close exists in Haughton...
