Biography

Maria Morello is born and baptized 16 February 1847. She is the daughter of Leoluca Morello and Giuseppa lo Piano. Her godparents are Andrea Sanzone and Domenica Valenza, a married couple.^[1]

Maria and Giovanni Oliveri's baptismal records appear together on one certificate in the Church matrimonial records for Corleone, 1871-78. They marry on 23 September 1877. Her father has passed away by this time, and her mother is still living.^[2]

Maria and Giovanni have at least five children together: Giuseppe (1878), three daughters named Calogera (1882, 1883, and 1887), and Nicolena (c. 1885).

All three daughters named Calogera die in infancy. See the Cascio Family Space for a short discussion on naming conventions.

At least 65 people from Corleone migrate together to Louisiana in 1894. The following names appear in series on the manifest of the Kronprinz Friedrich Wilhelm, sailing from Palermo via Naples and arriving on 17 October 1894 in Ellis Island. All passengers are going to New Orleans.
