Biography

Pietra Martorana is born 20 March 1905 in Corleone and baptized six days later. She is the daughter of Vito Martorana and Pietra Celso. Her godparents are Giovanni Battista Alongi and Rosalia Marino, his wife, from Misilmeri.^[1][2]

The baptismal record for Pietra Martorana says she marries in Misilmeri on 10 October 1920 to Giuseppe Greco, son of Giuseppe.^[3] Possibly, she marries and is widowed, and remarries two years later. The civil records for Misilmeri available online do not go so late as 1920 and there are no Church records for Misilmeri on FamilySearch at this time. Cascio-10 15:21, 23 October 2018 (UTC)

There is a matrimonial index entry that says Pietra marries Giovanni Ciancimino on 25 April 1922.^[4]

Giovanni and Pietra have at least one child, Vito (1924), named after his maternal grandfather.
