1 of the 8 relationships drawn above have been proved by a record this archive has read. The other 7 come from Michael Mazza's family tree and have not.

1 record has been read about them:

Trade -- missing entirely — CAMILLO ANTONIO POLISTENA, pescatore, aged 48 in 1883 so born about 1835. Living at Via Grotte 47, Scilla.
