Every relationship drawn here has been proved by a record — the one edge on this chart was read out of a register rather than taken from the family tree. The method →

This person is not in the family's file. They exist here because an act names them, and this archive has read it. The reading is Mascali, Morti 1890 atto 35 (4 April 1890), read in the original. 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.

Why this person is here

GENERATION SEVEN, AND THE OLDEST NICOTRA THIS ARCHIVE HAS REACHED on the line that leads to the children. Named in his son's death act: «NICOTRA ROSARIO ... nato in GIARRE, da fu SIMONE, e da fu MUSUMECI MARIANNA». Dead by April 1890, and since Rosario was born about 1800 at Giarre, Simone was fathering children there at the turn of the century — before Sicilian civil registration began in 1820, which is why no birth act for Rosario can exist. A SIMONE NICOTRA IS ALREADY IN THIS ARCHIVE. Giarre's very first register year, Nati 1820, holds two untitled Nicotra households and one of them is SIMONE NICOTRA x DADONE. A man fathering a child at Giarre in 1820 and a man fathering Rosario at Giarre about 1800 are entirely consistent, and the forename is uncommon. IT IS NOT JOINED. The 1820 act names a wife this one does not match, and a shared forename in one town is exactly the trap this archive has refused a dozen times. The test is Giarre's pre-1820 parish registers or a Mascali marriage act for Rosario and Venera.
