Biography

Francesca Castro is born and baptized on 25 May 1825. She is the daughter of Giuseppe Castro and Salvatrice Morello. Her godparents are Giovanni and Benedetta di Carlo, father and daughter.^[1]

Francesca marries Antonino di Nino, a farmer, on 1 October 1848.^[2] Her father has died by this time, and her mother is living.

Francesca and Antonino have at least seven children together, all known from their baptismal records: Giovanna (1849), the first of two daughters named Salvatrice (1851), Antonio (1854), Maria (1856), Giuseppe (1859), twins Maria and Salvatrice (1862), and Maria Antonia (1867).

The first daughter named Salvatrice dies on 9 September 1853 at two years of age.

The first daughter named Maria dies on 8 October 1857 at thirteen months of age.

See the Cascio Family Space for a short discussion on naming conventions.

In addition to the baptismal records, Giuseppe is known from his marriage allegati, which contain his birth record and his father's death record.

Giuseppe is born on 19 August 1859 in his parents' home in strada S. Elena, Corleone. Francesca Paola Gagliardo e de Luca, age 55, the midwife, reports his mother is 30 years old (b. 1829).

Her twin, Salvatrice, dies on 16 October 1864 at two years of age.

Antonino dies on 7 July 1877 in #51 via San Giuseppe, Corleone, reportedly at age 56 (b. 1821). Francesca Paola survives him.
