Biography

Filippo Gagliano, son of Tommaso Gagliano and Luigia Ferrara, marries Vincenza Scalisi on 2 October 1892. I estimate he is 20 years old at this time. Two of Filippo's brothers marry sisters who are second cousins of Vincenza's mother.

A note on this record's margin (# Civilis 90) seems to indicate that in the civil record, this is marriage number 90.

Filippo's son-in-law, Giulio Raia, is named among the low-level members of Navarra's cosca in Corleone (1943-1958).^[1]
