First Marriage, to Marco Colletto

Margherita marries twice, first to Marco Colletto on 3 February 1793. Her parents are both still living.[2].

Margherita and Marco have at least three children: Anna Maria (1794), Bernarda (1797), and Vincenzo (1800).

Although recently deceased, Marco Colletto, reportedly 35, heads a household in the 1802 Church census of the Borgo in Corleone. Also in the household are Margherita, his wife, reportedly 25 (b. 19 Sep 1775, she is 26-7), and children: Anna Maria, 7 (b. 22 May 1794), Bernarda, reportedly 6 (b. 13 Jan 1797, she is 5), and Vincenzo, reportedly 1 (b. 7 Dec 1800, he is 2).[3]


Second Marriage, to Nunzio Navarra

Margherita marries Nunzio Navarra on 8 October 1804. Her father, Mercurio, has died by this time, and her mother, Gaetana, is still living.

Margherita and Nunzio have at least seven children: three sons named Antonino (1805, 1813, and 1818), Leoluca (1807), Maria Carmela (1810), Antonio (1815), and Maria (c. 1822).

The first Antonino is born and baptized 21 April 1805, named after his paternal grandfather. His godparents are Paolo and Antonina Nieri, a married couple.

In the 1807 Church census, Nunzio Navarra, 41 (b. 1766), lives with his wife, Margherita, 31 (b. 1776), and their children, near the Chiesa di Canzoneri (Canzoneri church). The children listed are: Anna Maria Colletti, 11 (b. 1796), Bernarda Colletti, 10 (b. 1797), Vincenzo Colletti, 6 (b. 1801), and Antonino Navarra, 2 (b. 1805) The Colletti children are Margherita's from her first marriage, to Marco Colletti.
