Ciao Marco

(see attach. ORIGINAL MARRIAGE at n°21 of archive)

The matter is very complicated because in the church are missing data from 1844
up to 1893 and in the civil archive are missed many years, I crossed the data
available:

Marriage FLORINDO FRAINO & ROSA IANNACCHIONE 29/December/1901

ROSA IANNACCHIONE(paesant woman- birth ?) :

Rosa's mother Carmina Colavecchia (birth 10(Aug./1854).
Carmina's mother Teresa Rossi (birth 30/August/1828).
Carmina's father Michelangelo Colavecchia (birth 10/Aprile/1823).
STATUS ANIMARUM 1869 only ONE family Colavecchi in Via Fucine!!!

Rosa's father Gaetano Iannacchione n°3 possibility.
1)birth 28/Maj/1848 from Pietro (1819)& Carmina Di Giacomo (1820). (Mark's note: Gaetano Domenicantonio)
2)birth 28/Dec/1851 from Giuseppe (1827)& Annalisa Di Martino (1828). (Mark's note: Gaetano Berardino)
3)birth 27/Sept/1854 from Antonio (1801)& Maria Colajanni (1818). (Mark's note: Gaetano Pasquale)
I think n° 3 GOAL. (Mark's note: it is number 2. We know the middle name from the marriage record)

FLORINDO FRAINO (LABOURER- birth ?) :

Florindo's mother Florinda Fraino (birth 20/July/1857). Florinda gave her last
name because the father don't recognised the son (many cases in SPA).
Florinda's mother Emilia Di Giacomo(birth 19/Feb/1836.
