The mark is the archive's grade for the person (documented, probable, inferred, family, disputed). A «link» mark says where the link itself comes from, and appears only where the archive has tested it. Being on the direct line is the bar at the top of the page, not a grade.
About this record
MARIANO, GIUSEPPE, DOMENICA AND ALFIA MAZZA'S MOTHER, AND HER DEATH IS FOUND. Morti 1843 atto 60 (an_ua72308, image 33, left page; the act's text was re-zoomed by the session): on 25 December 1843 at eight in the morning died at Piedimonte «Giuseppa Pulvirenti, di anni se[ssan]ta, moglie di fu Orazio Mazza, nata in Piedimonte, filandiera, figlia di fu Mariano e di fu Agata Barbagallo»; declarants Mastro Orazio Cardile (muratore) and Francesco Morabito (bracciale).Read on
The age is cut by the line break; the husband's surname reads Mazza (Marza in the delegate's reading). WHAT IT SETTLES: (1) she is the mother of the four known children (Mariano, Giuseppe, Domenica, Alfia), who name her in their notices and acts; (2) her father was MARIANO PULVIRENTI and her mother AGATA BARBAGALLO, both dead by 1843, so Mariano Mazza (b. c. 1809) carries his maternal grandfather's name, as the naming custom says (and his own son Rosario's first son, Mariano, b. 1872, carries it again); (3) her husband ORAZIO MAZZA was dead before December 1841 and, if the 1836 acts say 'fu' for him, before January 1836: his own death has not been looked for (Morti tables before 1836 were read for Mazza and Marza only from 1834). Her age at death makes Mariano's birth year (c. 1809) arithmetic possible for her at any of the ages quoted.
Where this comes from
This person is not in the family's file. They exist here because an act names them, and this archive has read it. The register gives their trade as filandiera. The reading is Piedimonte Etneo, Morti 1843 atto 60 (act, image 33); Matrimoni 1836 atti 3 and 17; Matrimoni memorandum 1841 no. 31 and 1844 no. 27; Morti 1887 atto 10 ('fu Polvirenti Giuseppa'). Nothing on this page comes from Michael's export, which never held them — so there is no tree account here to agree or disagree with, and the pieces the export arrived in do not include them.
