#1: New Name... Author: lilbeesLocation: Georgia, USA PostPosted: Sun Aug 03, 2008 9:29 am

I have a new name I am now working on.

Catherine Talaia? Talaja?

It is listed on the record I have that place of origination is Acquaviva, Toscany. But, I believe her family immigrated to Cosenza, then Sircusa prior to her marriage in Carlentini about 1902. I have sent for possible marriage record but it will be a while before I hear anything. Is anyone familiar with the name? The correct spelling?

Thanks,
lilbees

Wouldn't this be Caterina ----- depending when this was recorded it could be a "Long i" which looks like the letter j

Catherne was born 1885. The record I am looking at is a baptismal record for one of their children dated 1903. It is in French so the name may be Caterine but her death listing (in french) is also Catherine.

I have seen the name Talaja spelled also Talaia.
