Seeking death record for Giuseppa Iacona, San Cataldo (CL) Sicily

Post by Bette »

I am seeking the death record for my great-grandmother, Giuseppa Iacona. She was born on September 27, 1841, in San Cataldo, Caltanissetta, Sicily, to parents Francesco Iacona and Anna Falduzzi (Falluzza). She was married to Cataldo Alessi. It appears as though she was still alive when her son Salvatore Alessi emigrated to the USA in 1911.

I have checked the death index in San Cataldo for years 1905 through 1930 and did not find her.
Do you know when her husband Cataldo Alessi died?

Any children who remained in San Cataldo?

Thank you Tessa78 and adelfio for your research and posted church documents. I know that I have used the term "Aft 1911" when I have posted Giuseppa Iacona's death date on a family tree. But, Adelfio could you tell me why you think she died in 1911?

Tessa78...As shown above, Giuseppa Iacona's husband Cataldo Alessi died in 1890. Giuseppa's daughter Rosaria Alessi died on 19 Sept 1911. On Rosaria's death record, it shows her mother living and her father deceased. One son, Salvatore Alessi and one daughter Anna Alessi were already in the USA by this time. No other offspring were in San Cataldo.

If she didn't die in San Cataldo, Caltanissetta, Sicily is there any record of her immigrating to the USA? I could not find one. Her son Salvatore Alessi and his wife settled in W.Wyoming, PA. in 1911. By 1920 they had moved to Rochester, NY.
