Pietro Vasi is a Corleone native resident, the son of Maestro Placido Vasi and Giovanna Colajanni, who married in 1773.

Pietro marries Francesca Sciemgla, daughter of the late Andrea Sciemgla and Rosa Schiro, from Contessa Entellina (‘’Comitissa’’), on 3 September 1809. His parents have died by this time.^[1]

Pietro and Francesca have at least four children: Giovanna (c. 1812), Giuseppa (c. 1814), Rosa (c. 1816), and Pietro (c. 1820).

Giovanna is named after her paternal grandmother.
