Biography

Biagia Milone, casalinga (housewife), is born around 1821 in Corleone, the daughter of Pasquale Milone and Giacinta Birrittella.

Biagia marries Maestro Vincenzo Mancuso, widower of Giuseppa Orlando, and son of Giuseppe Mancuso and Rosalia Collura, on 4 November 1838 in Prizzi.^[1]

Biagia and Vincenzo have at least three children: Carmela Maria (c. 1842), Francesca Paola (1854), and Antonio Mariano (c. 1863).

Carmela dies in infancy in Prizzi.

Francesca Paola is born in Prizzi on 30 January 1854 and reported the same day. The midwife, Maria Blenes?, age 38, reports the birth of a female child to Biagia Milone, a resident of Prizzi. Biagia is 35 (b. 1818). The father is Maestro Vincenzo Mancuso, age 50 (b. 1803), a tailor.^[2]

Antonio Mariano was born around 1863, based on his given age at the births of his children.

Maestro Vincenzo dies at age 65 (b. 1813) on 8 November 1878.^[3]

Francesca marries Vincenzo Verro around December 1878 in Corleone. Her father has died by this time.^[4]

Mariano Antonino (as he's called in this record) marries Maria Concetta Bernarda Pietra Cascio on 29 April 1889.
