Mauro / Zusa

Post by yandle »

Trying to determine whether Mauro brothers married Zusa sisters but unable to locate documents.

Franchesco Mauro marries Lorenza Leto and has the following children:
Ciro born 13 May 1829 in Baucina, Palermo, Sicily, Italy
Tommasso
Giovanni
Rosa Maria
Could Angelo Mauro be another possible child? Unable to find records for him.

Ciro Mauro marries Maria Zusa, Sept. 1854 in Corleone. I believe Maria's parents are Antonino Zusa and Girolama Briganti.
Maria later dies and Ciro remarries.

Angelo Mauro marries Margherita Zusa, verified by the birth certificate for their daughter, Girolama Mauro, born in 1864 in Corleone. Angelo is 36 years old at the time of Girolama's birth. Margherita Zusa is also listed as 36 on the birth certificate.

Angelo Mauro appears to be related to Ciro, possibly a brother but I have been unable to locate verification. Based on his daughter's marriage certificate, he was born in 1827 or 1828.

Also trying to confirm whether Margherita and Maria Zusa could be sisters.

Thanks in advance.

Could you please post the images/links for the records you have?

I am not finding the surname Zusa existing in Sicily today.

The May 20, 1864 baptism record is showing the surname as La Susa which is current in Corleone.
