Siani and Briscione families in Contursi

[Plankowner]

Looking for additional information on both families and have read the other posts on the forum.
In particular looking for info on Maria Battist Briscione and her ancestors.

Briscione is quite a rare surname these days, but found in places in the north and slightly more in the region of Campagnia. From the Liberty Ellis Foundation records it looks like most of the Briscione that went over to the US were from Contursi Terme in Campagnia. Siani is a Campagnia name found mainly in Cava de' Tirreni. What kind of information are you looking for?

We know quite a bit about our Siani side of the family but little of the Briscione side.

Maria Battist Briscione was my Great Grandmother. She married Pasquale Siani and moved to NYC. She passed away in 1959 in Brooklyn NY. Pasquale died in 1927 in Manhattan.

Looking for information on her parents and/or siblings. Any help would be appreciated.

I think they match!

Pasquale is the right one; a few days' difference in birth date are not relevant; it might just be a mistranscription.
Domenico mmogno listed seems to be Pasquale's son; in fact, mother is Maria Battista Briscione.
