Biography

Francesca Birtone, daughter of the late Giovanni and the living Orsola, marries Nicolo' lo Liggio, son of Filippo and the late Angela, on 26 January 1746.^[1]

Francesca and Nicolo' have at least six children: Angela (c. 1748), Anna Maria (c. 1753), Giuseppe (c. 1758), Maria (c. 1761), Vincenzo (c. 1766), and Bernarda (c. 1774).

Anna Maria marries Francesco Sanfilippo on 26 September 1773. Her mother's surname is not recorded.^[2]

Giuseppe marries Crocifissa lo Presti on 11 January 1778.^[3]

Angela marries at least twice, first to Giuseppe Russo. She remarries to Santo Bentivegna, who is also a widower, on 6 March 1784 in Corleone.^[4]

Vincenzo marries Providenza Gambauta on 25 September 1796. His parents have died by this time.^[5]

Open Issue: I have not yet found a marriage that matches the names of Maria's parents, Nicolo' Leggio and Francesca Piranio, as they are recorded in her 1781 marriage. (Leggio and Liggio/lo Liggio are forms of the same surname.)

Maria marries Salvatore Riina on 16 September 1781. Their parents are all living at this time, according to this record.^[6]

Bernarda marries Tommaso Vintaloro, a widower, on 9 June 1794. Her mother has died by this time, according to this record.^[7]
