[TI] Allegati question

[Laura Johnson]

Ann

First thing I did was to check the 3 documents that are in the database 
showing his death date - ALLTHREE ARE CORRECT - they state Antonina 
Palmisano

He was married to Antonina Mercurio who DIED in 1812 according to both 
Angelo's allegati and also the allegati for his sister Giuseppa Maria in 
1824.  The marriage document states Angelo's mother is Antonina 
MERCURIO, the banns of marriage state MERCURIO..............  

You have two obvious scenarios at this point -
1.  There is a mistake on the original civil death record (seems to 
happen a lot especially on the death records) and the Antonina Palmisano 
should be Mercurio
OR
2.  Cosimo probably remarried  between 1812 and 1822 because his death 
document states he was was the WIDOWER of Antonina Palmisano
