Palmeri/Fanale

Post by SicilySearch »

Mt Grandfather was Alberto (b. Liberto) Palmeri born in Brancaccio on Oct 20. 1895. He had 3 younger sisters. His mother, Domenica Fanale emigrated here with her family in 1902. Some time between when Albert was born (or shortly before) and 1902, I assume his father... possibly also Liberto Palmeri (? born 1860 as per an old record that may match)died in Sicily before she came to America. I have hit a dead end. I know Domenica came here to America with 2 of her bothers and stayed with a brother already in NY hen remarried.ANy help on this line would be appreciated,

There is a Liberto Palmieri in the 10 years death index in Palermo.
Died in Brancaccio on 6th June 1895 aged 35, son of Giosuè and Russo Rosalia.
Only need to find register volume #294 act #105 to check if it’s him.

Could we see that old record of yours regarding the birth of Liberto in 1860?

You may already have this, it’s the decennial birth index.
Liberto Palmieri son of Liberto and Fanale Domenica was born on 20th October 1895 in Brancaccio. Volume #339 act #377
Just to confirm father and son correct names.

I fortunately knew my Grandfather very well...and yes, his birth date is correct. The dilemma is his mother & father. The death record cited above actually says Liberio (could be an incorrect translation and never could find a marriage record in Brancaccio or Villabate where I believe Domenica was from. Thank you all for responding!

I have found these translated 10 year searches before but forget how I got to them on Family search! Can someone help with that so I can try to search other family members to help complete the tree?

This could be interesting, in the decennial marriage index.
https://antenati.cultura.gov.it/ark:/12 ... 05/5dJVE8G

Under the letter “P”
Alberto Palmieri son of Giosuè marries Giuseppa Fanale on 13th June 1885.
Ufficio 1, Volume 112, act 350.

Under the letter “F”
Giuseppa Fanale daughter of Settimo marries Albino Palmieri on 13th June 1885.
Ufficio 1, Volume 112, act 350.

Yes, there are interpretation errors in his names but it’s most probably them.
She could have been called Giuseppa Domenica or vice versa.

Thank you...I had seen that as well. Domenica's father was Sattimo Fanale...that I had found out and she also came to America with her brother Settimo in 1902. Thank you for the research links...again, I could not remember how I originally got to them. Can you help with that as I am hoping another Palmeri brother that did not die prior to the 1900's might have previously emigrated to America.
