masciovecchio from paganica...

[js1228]

Hello -
I'm looking for some information to help me confirm some things in my family tree. My great-grandfather Beniamino Masciovecchio was born in Paganica on 4-24-1892. He later immigrated to the US. I know that his father was Enrico Masciovecchio. I am trying to confirm his mother's name, along with his grandparents and siblings.

I was hoping someone could help me confirm if Rosalia Silva was his mother. It is my understanding the she was born in 1866 in Paganica and died there on 9-2-1940.

If she IS his mother, I'm hoping to find out if he had other siblings and who they were. His obituary indicated that he had two brothers (Antonio and Henry) and a sister - who I think was Maria (she married a man with the last name of DiPasquale).

Any thoughts or information is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Jenn

The side note states that the father's name is Errico, not Enrico. btw the father signs as Errigo...

this is great! thank you SO much!!! this confirms the connection.

I'm assuming that Ulderico is the brother I mentioned as Henry. Also, there are notes in the margin of his birth certificate. Not sure if you can translate to tell me if there is anything interesting there.

As well, is there any way to tell if there is a birth record for Maria Lucia Masciovecchio (born 1901)...and possibly a marriage record for the man, DiPasquale (I think Ansunino Beniamino is his given name).

I truly appreciate your help on this!!!

Marty - I'm curious...the notes in the margin...do you know what they say? I thought it was interesting that no other records had additional notes? Thx.

The margin notation indicates that the Tribunal court ordered on 12 May 1916, that the birth act be rectified to show that the father's name was Errico, instead of Enrico [Enrico was written in the original record]; and the mother was age 32, instead of 34.
