Vittoria Angerame - Montemurro, Potenza

Post by Plotinus »

My 3rd great-grandfather, Vito PANELLA married 1st to Veneranda MAROTTA in Armento & after her death in 1814 married Vittoria ANGERAME.

Vito died in 1832, Armento. I found Vittoria's death in Armento - 1861 Image 39 #75 - on antenati site.
My question is: Her name is listed as what appears to be Barracone Vittoria Angerame, vedova Vito Panella. The informants are her step-sons.

My questions: What does Barracone mean? I cannot find it in Italian dictionaries/word lists.
Can you verify her age?

Thanks!

It says that she died "in the Barraccone" - e' morta nel Barraccone"

I don't think it's dialect. My understanding is that it's like a little shed, hut or some sort of makeshift place.

Baraccone translates to booth, stall like you would find at an amusement park.
