Crown Hill and Mt. Olivet Cemeteries, Wheat Ridge, CO

Many people from San Pietro Avellana are buried in Crown Hill and Mt. Olivet cemeteries. In the past, Mt. Calvary was also used but it has been closed (in 1950) and all the bodies were moved (many to Mt. Olivet). Here is the web site of the Denver Public Library which talks about the cemeteries in Denver.

Unless otherwise noted, all of these photos were taken by me in Jun of 2010. I did not have enough time to find all the Frazzini nor did I have time to search for other SPA surnames other than what you see here -- next time.

Crown Hill Cemetery, Wheat Ridge, CO

"Find A Grave" web site for Crown Hill.

Frazzini Family Plot
Across the front are the four brothers - Prospero, Cesare, Felicito and Antonio.
Behind the angel are the wives and children.
This are plots 24-23-X and 24-62-X

A shot of the Angel is used in a promotional video that was playing the lobby of the Olinger Mortuary at Crown Hill.
It is also included on a walking tour brochure of the Cemetery.

The first burials in this plot were in Apr of 1915. That must be when the plot was puchased.
The bodies of a few of these people must have been moved from other cemeteries - possibly Mt. Calvary.
Frazzini moved here on 29 Apr are: Eugenia, Federico, Giulia, Alberto, and Antonio.

Prospero Frazzini
1866-1926
(Plot 24-23-1)

Cesare F. Frazzini
1871-1929
(Plot 24-23-2)
From his obituary: "Pallbearers will be six of the city's most prominent Italian-Americans.
They are Phillip Serafini, Louis Spalloni, Thomas Settefrate, Guido Mapelli, Herman Mapelli, and Michael Marranzino"

Felicito Frazzini
1864-1937
(Plot 24-23-3)

Antonio "Antonino" Frazzini
1869-1912
(Plot 24-23-4)
He actually died in 1912.
Cemetery records show that he was moved here on 29 Apr 1915.
Mar 2012According to a funeral notice in The Denver Post, he was originally buried at Fairmount.

Alberto Frazzini
1907-1910
(Plot 24-23-10)
This is probably a son of Felicito Frazzini and Carolina deAndrea.
Jerri Frazzini Bottomly had given me the name of Antonio and that he had died in childhood.

Cemetery records show the burial on 29 Apr 1915 so he was probably moved here.

Francesco Frazzini
1887-1915
(Plot 24-23-5)
Buried 7 Apr 1915
Son of Felicito Frazzini and his first wife Giuseppa Dorinda Labate.
Mar 2012According to a funeral notice in The Denver Post, he was originally buried here at Crown Hill.

Giulia
1881-1905
(Plot 24-23-6)
Buried 29 Apr 1915
This must be Julia Rollins, first wife of Prospero Frazzini. Mother of Lina and Teresa Frazzini.
Mar 2012According to a funeral notice in The Denver Post, she was originally buried at Mt. Calvary.

Federico Frazzini
(Plot 24-23-6 the same plot as Giulia Rollins Frazzini)
Buried 29 Apr 1915
I don't know who this is. The burial date suggests that the baby died earlier and was moved here.

Eugenia "Jennie" Milano Frazzini
1884-1909
(Plot 24-23-7)
Buried 29 Apr 1915
Second wife of Prospero Frazzini. They didn't have any children that I know of but see next entry.
Mar 2012According to a funeral notice in The Denver Post, she was originally buried at Fairmount.

Baby Frazzini
(Plot 24-23-7½)
Buried 17 Feb 1918
Since this baby is buried in the same grave as Eugenia, this may be her child.

Elvira Degna Cioffi Frazzini
1875-1931
(Plot 24-23-8)
Wife of Cesare Frazzini.

Beatrice Frazzini
1911-1946
(Plot 24-62-1)
Daughter of Cesare Frazzini and Degna Cioffi.

Constance A. Frazzini
1907-1956
(Plot 24-62-2)
Daughter of Cesare Frazzini and Degna Cioffi.

Carolina deAndrea Frazzini
1878-1961
(Plot 24-62-3)
Wife of Felicito Frazzini

Eugenia (Jennie) Frazzini

(Plot 24-62-6)
Daughter of Felicito Frazzini and Carolina deAndrea.

Domenico Frazzini

Vincenzo Frazzini 1873-1939 and Esterina "Ernesta" Morgano Frazzini 1877-1955
(Plots 30-199-1 and 30-199-2)

Nunzio Frazzini
Buried 10 Jun 1915
(Plot 26-66-2)
This is possibly the first Nunzio Frazzini, born about 1909 in SPA to Vincenzo Frazzini and Esterina "Ernesta" Morgano.
I believe that he died before 1916 as a second son named Nunzio was born to Vincenzo and Esterina about 1916.

Angelo diGiacomo 1897-1977 and Serafina (Saraphina) 1898-1965
diGiacomo is a name from SPA but I don't know who these people are.
They might not be from SPA.

Onorato Labate 185501929 and Elisabetta Colaianni Labate 1858-1929
Onorato was the son of Biagio Labate and Annantonia Frazzino.
I've not yet found the parents of Elisabetta.

Their daughter, Restilda Labate Colaianni, is also buried at Crown Hill.

Mapelli

The Mapelli family was not from San Pietro Avellana. They were, though, connected to the Frazzini family in many business dealings.


Mapelli Family Crypt
The doors were locked. This was about 50 feet from the Frazzini Family Plot.
I'm not sure who is buried here but it is probably the Mapelli siblings: Giuseppe (Joseph),
Ambogio (George), Armando (Herman), Rudolfo (Rudolph), Assunta and Mario.

email from Pat Lauderbach, Jul 2010:
Hi Mark,
Thanks for the update on your trip to Denver. I hope this finds you doing well. Things have been crazy busy here, so it has been a while since I have done any research.  I'd like to get back to that soon.  All of the Mapellis at Crown Hill are related.  I've been inside of the outdoor mausoleum.  I think my sister replaced the stained glass window that vandals broke out a while back.  The outdoor mausoleum has Joseph, Emil, his son Emil  & Rudolph.

Mapelli
Inside were the tombs of:
Cavaliere Guido Mapelli 1883-1975
Ersilia A. F. Mapelli  1881-1951
Herman M. Mapelli 1911-2000
Betty Jane Mapelli 1917-2008
Antonio S. Guadagni  1911-1993
Dolores M. Guadagni 1909-2005
The Mapelli Family Coat of Arms was inlaid in the floor.
