Biography

Veneranda (or "Venera") d'Amari ("Amuri"), daughter of Francesco and Maria d'Amuri, born in Bisacquino and a resident of Corleone since the age of minority, marries Giuseppe Porrazzo ("Purrazzo"), son of Santo and the late Anna Purrazzo, and a citizen of Palermo, on 14 June 1751 in Corleone.^[1]

Veneranda and Maestro Giuseppe have at least three children: Rosalia (c. 1752), Anna (c. 1753), and Providenza (c. 1771).

I estimate Rosalia is twenty when she marries.

Anna is named after her paternal grandmother. I estimate she is born within a few years of her parents' marriage.

I estimate Providenza is born no later than 1771, twenty years after her parents marry.

Rosalia marries Giovanni lo Monaco on 28 November 1772.^[2]

Anna marries Maestro Pietro Birrittella on 22 July 1776.^[3]

Providenza marries Nicolo’ Jannazzo on 28 April 1794. Her parents have died by this time.^[4]
