I got a message from my expert friend, Luca, and he says that

Giuseppe Sapienza's occupation could be fisherman.

The wife of Luciano Distefano should be Santa Schillaci

Here is the first marriage document that Rita has asked to post. This is what I have come up with if anyone sees changes to be made, please do so.

Marriage Document
1875 January 28th
Giuseppi Sapienza – age 40 – farmer?
Born in Massanunziata? – living in Belpasso
Son of the deceased Michelangelo Sapienza who lived in Massanunziata? all his life and the deceased Carmela Cossieli ? who lived in Massanunziata? all her life

Lucia Proietta – age 23 – farmer
Born in Belpasso – living in Belpasso
Daughter of the deceased Ignazio Proietta who lived in Belpasso all his life and the deceased Domenica DiStefano who lived in Belpasso all her life

Witnesses to marriage
Nunzio Paladino – age 46 – (occupation ?)
Giovanni Tiorentino – age 33 – (furniture maker ?)

img166.imageshack.us/i...sapos7.jpg

I did not see a prior marriage for Giuseppi noted on this document or an indication of a deceased spouse (with her name).

Can one of our experts please take a look to back check what I've come up with. Also if you can give an opinion...........I believe this Giuseppi and Lucia are the parents listed for a child on one of the birth acts posted earlier.

Thanks in advance for help kiss

I've read the Marriage document thoroughly and I'm 99% certain.

1875 January 28th
Giuseppe Sapienza – age 40 – farmer
Born in Massannunziata – living in Belpasso
Son of the deceased Michelangelo Sapienza who lived in Massanunziata? all his life and the deceased Carmela Consoli who lived in Massannunziata all her life

Lucia Proietto – age 23 – farmer
Born in Belpasso – living in Belpasso
Daughter of the deceased Ignazio Proietto who lived in Belpasso all his life and the deceased Domenica Distefano who lived in Belpasso all her life

Witnesses to marriage
Nunzio Paladino – age 46 – shoemaker
Giovanni Fiorentino – age 33 – clerk [impiegato]

img166.imageshack.us/i...sapos7.jpg

The surname Consoli still exists in the town Mascalucia (Massa annunziata is a hamlet of Mascalucia), there are 70+ occurrences. And Proietto is a surname in Belpasso.

Lucia Proietto and Giuseppe Sapienza seem to be the parents of Francesco Sapienza http://www.calabriangenealogy.googlepages.com/MRita1.jpg
and Anna Sapienza http://www.calabriangenealogy.googlepages.com/Mrita2.jpg

A question....Who is " Lucia Pracetto " in Francesco Sapienza's baptismal? I know this is my Great Grandfather but his mother's name should be Lucia DiStefano. The same with Anna Sapienza. Please explain. ~ Rita

The correct name is Lucia Proietto and her mother is Domenica Distefano.

Thank you Laura and Livio kiss

So now we have the real parents of Francesco and Anna. Maybe Giuseppe was married 3 times then, and not 2 like Rita thought?

Very Happy

My cousin told me that Lucia Proietto mother's maiden name is Distefano (same woman) so she may have used her father's last name~"Proietto" instead of Distefano like her other children(Alfio,Rose,~so far). I still need to find more of their childrens baptismals and I appreciate everyones help on translating these documents. Thank you! kiss

Rita, if you scroll back a few posts, in this topic, you will see that on Thu Jan 17, 2008, I wrote: The surname Consoli (and Consoli is the surname of Carmela, the mother of Giuseppe Sapienza) still exists in the town Mascalucia (Massa annunziata is a hamlet of Mascalucia), there are 70+ occurrences.
