Biography

Rosalia Crapa is born around 1830 in Corleone, the daughter of Tommaso Crapa and Biagia Vintaloro, who married in 1819.

In 1834 Rosalia, 4 (b. 1830), lives with her parents, Tommaso, 41 (b. 1793) and Biagia, 30 (b. 1804), and siblings: Angela, 12 (b. 1822), Matteo, 9 (b. 1825), and Maria, 1 (b. 1833). They live in the San Nicolo’ quarter in Corleone, on an unnamed street (possibly the strada di Bruno) between an alley (a “vanella”) and the strada di Piazza. Her maternal grandmother Maria Vintaloro, 60 (b. 1774), lives next door with Biagia’s sister, Liboria, 18 (b. 1816).^[1]

Rosalia marries Antonino di Miceli, son of Bernardo di Miceli and the late Orsola Gallo, on 14 September 1862.^[2]

Antonino and Rosalia have three known children: Orsola Benedetta (1864), Bernardo (1882), and Biagio (1885).

Orsola Benedetta is born and baptized on 17 February 1864 in Corleone. Her godfather is Carmelo Pennino, who is unmarried.^[3] Orsola is named after her paternal grandmother.

Bernardo is born and baptized 29 June 1882 in Corleone. His godparents are his paternal uncle Giuseppe di Miceli and his wife, Giuseppa Rao.^[4] Bernardo is named after his paternal grandfather. His uncle and aunt were also the godparents of Fratuzzi boss Giuseppe Battaglia’s daughter, Orsola, in 1876.

Biagio is born and baptized on 28 February 1885 in Corleone. His godparents are Vincenzo Piazza and Carmela Cerniglia, son and mother.^[5]
