Marriage supplements… any nuggets?

Post by warriorrabbit »

Does this include any information that would help me identify Marianna Torre’s other relatives?

Her mother is Concetta Torre, padre ignoti, but there are of course a couple different Concetta Torres in the same rough timeframe, so… hard to say which Concetta Torre I should be following.

No, sorry there are no added documents there that would help identify Marianna Torre's other relatives. Have you tried looking for Concetta's death record? She was still living in August 1869 when daughter Marianna married to Carmelo Alose. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903 ... cc=1887904

Concetta Torre was 36 yo in 1845 when Marianna was born so you are looking for a death record pertaining to a Concetta Torre born circa 1809.

The problem is there are several Concetta Torres… or at least a couple, I do suspect several of them are one person but I don’t seem to have any way of verifying. Plus a couple that did marry.

Year | child | mother’s age

1833 Pietro (15)
1836 Maria (24)
1834 Domenico (23)

Possible Death of your Concetta Torre:

Death No 12: Concetta Torre
Registered: Mazzarra’ Sant’Andrea: 17 May 1889

It was reported that Concetta Torre, 78 yo (1811), a faticatrice (worker, day labourer) died yesterday (16 May 1889) at 3.20 pm. She was born and living in this town, the daughter of the deceased Agostino Torre, a bracciale (day labourer) who lived in this town when living, and of “Marianna” Abramo, also a faticatrice, living in this town. Concetta was never married.

I do have that one noted, also two that were 1815-1884 and 1815-1887 and also 1819-to undetermined (but before 1905).

There just doesn’t seem to be a way to know for certain who is who. I mean it’s also possible she moved to Barcellona, as some of the family did. (Although I found no record.)

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I don’t want to make assumptions, so was hoping to find some banns or something with other notations. Alas.
