looking for information about Martino Bottino

[suanj]

ahhh so my find was right! Martino was born in Oneglia,exGenova, now Imperia, IT. Genova was the province pertaining Oneglia. currently is Imperia. To say "natural de Genova" means that he was in Genova province, because Imperia is a more modern province. Genova is also the capital of the Liguria region.

I keep looking for more information about Martin Bottino's family in Oneglia and I found the marriage certificate of his brother Giovanni, with Cattarina Ghighlielmi in 1838.
there it is confirmed that he is the son of Leonardo Bottino and Cecilia Demoro, although she had already died that year.

Ghiglielmi right spell.. well this search was for me fascinating really... Yes Cecilia died at this time.. What could be possible to search you can search now!

I found a marriage of Angela Maria Francesca BOTTINO, 20 old on 1842 daughter of Leonardo and Cecilia Demoro... now by this record the maiden name of Cecilia is more readable... https://antenati.cultura.gov.it/ark:/12 ... 82/LeMV39l
so she was born on 1822, the her brother Giovanni around 1818...

Regarding the case of Martino Bottino's sister, in the notes at the end of the document it says something like: 'she was represented by her brother Giovanni because her father was in America'...Is this correct?

Dear Suanj, I'm going to write an update.
I was finally able to obtain Martino's baptismal certification. He was born in 1824 and not in 1813.
But best of all, I was able to contact an Italian relative, Carlo, a descendant of Giovanni Battista Bottino, Martino's brother.
I believe that all of this would not have been possible without your invaluable help, since at the beginning of this search I only had a name.
