Biography

Giuseppe Morello is born 4 August 1809 in Corleone and baptized the next day. He is the son of Calogero Morello and Antonina Crapa. His godparents are Leoluca Terrusa and Diana, wife of Antonino Terrusa.

Open Issue: Giuseppe does not appear in the 1811 stato delle anime with his parents and brothers. He would be two years old.

Giuseppe, a farmer (agricola), marries Maria Grizzaffi on 4 June 1837. His parents are both living, and hers have passed away.

Giuseppe and Maria have at least ten children together: Antonina (1838), Calogero (1839), twins Caterina and Francesca (1841), Giuseppe (1846), Vincenza (1848), a second girl named Caterina (1851), Angelo (1853), Leoluca (1857), and Liborio (1859).

The twins (b. 1841) both die within weeks of their birth.

Antonina, named after her paternal grandmother, marries Giuseppe Streva on 13 April 1856.

The younger Giuseppe is born and baptized on 30 January 1846. He shares a name with his father, and with his maternal grandfather. His godparents are Salvatore Cutropia and Giovanna di Carlo, a married couple.

Vincenza marries Bernardo Guarino on 1 February 1864.

Calogero, named after his paternal grandfather, marries Angela Piazza on 11 February 1866.

The surviving Caterina, who is named after her maternal grandmother, marries Biagio Cascio in 1867. The birth record extract in Caterina's marriage allegati indicates that Giuseppe reported her birth, and gave his age at the time as 39 (b. 1812).

Calogero dies, reportedly at age 36 (he's only 32) on 24 May 1872. His parents and wife all survive him.

Giuseppe (the son) marries Lucia Saporito on 11 November 1878.

The elder Giuseppe dies, reportedly at age 70 (he is 71) on 26 February 1881. Maria dies two months later at age 60 (b. 1821), on 29 April.

Leoluca marries Giuseppa Morello (no relation) on 31 July 1881.

Liborio marries Antonina Vaccaro on 16 January 1882.

Giuseppe's oldest daughter, Antonina, dies on 8 April 1889, reportedly at age 41 (b. 1847-8) and actually a day shy of her 51st birthday. Her husband, Giuseppe, survives her.
