Maria Ridulfo is a Corleone native resident, the daughter of Leoluca and Vincenza Ridulfo. Based on her reported age at death, she is born around 1741, only eleven years before she marries. I estimate she is born around 1732, twenty years before she marries.
Maria marries Biagio Morello on 26 November 1752. Her parents are both still living.
Maria and Biagio have at least four children: Gioachino (c. 1762), Giuseppe (c. 1768), Leoluchina (c. 1769), and Calogero (1776).
Calogero is born and baptized 14 August 1776. His godparents are Vincenzo and Anna Maria Nicolosi, son and mother.[1]
Gioachino marries Francesca Fasciana on 1 September 1782.[2]
Giuseppe marries Arcangela Mangiameli on 14 September 1788 in Corleone.[3]
Leoluchina (called by the surname "Amorello" in this record) marries Cosimo Rigoglioso on 8 November 1789.[4]
Calogero marries Antonina Crapa on 4 February 1797.
Death of Maria
Maria dies at age 63 (b. 1741) on 1 October 1804.
Calogero dies, reportedly at age 40 (he is 62) on 16 January 1839. Maria and Biagio have both died by this time. This record gives his mother's surname as "Ruffino."
