Biography

Pietro lo Curto, son of the late Gaetano lo Curto and the living Maria Gaetana Governali, marries Gioachina Majuri (Maggiore), daughter of Ciro Majuri and Antonina lo Curto, on 19 June 1889 in Corleone. Consanguinity is detected and a dispensation obtained from Monreale for this marriage.^[1] Pietro and Gioachina are first cousins, once removed with multiple common ancestors.

Gioachina's brother, Pietro, and two of his sons are active in the Mafia in Corleone. Another of Gioachina's brothers, Tommaso, meets Pietro lo Curto in New York City at 303 E. 107th St.

Pietro and Gioachina have at least one child, Vincenzo (1906).

Vincenzo is born in 1906 in Corleone. He marries Lucia Cipolla in 1945. (Salvatore lo Curto, personal communication, 24 April 2019.)
