Research Notes

This man may be a duplicate of Antonio Piazza-468. The primary difference is that this man is married to Francesca Digiovanna, and the other is married to Francesca Iannazzo. The sole source for Francesca's Iannazzo's surname is the marriage record for their son Antonio who married a Grazia Iannazzo. It would be an easy error to record the bride's surname for that of Antonio's mother. One other little glitch: that Antonio died before 1816, and this man had children born after that date. Still, worth watching.
