How our line connects
Not connected to our line yet. No Pontillo married a man of the Mazza name line or was a parent of one or of his wife: the Pontillo come into the children's descent through Angela Polistena, whose side meets that line only in its living generations. Giovanna Pontillo is the mother of Giovanni Polistena, the father of Angela Polistena.

4 people, 2 descent groups
A descent group is every bearer of the name who can be reached from one another through parent, child and marriage links between bearers — the rule the Mazza and Arena pages use. Two groups are two groups until a record joins them, however alike their names and their towns.
| Group | People | Years | Born mainly at | Direct ancestors | With a record read |

| A | 3 | — | Scilla | 3 | 1 |

The living. The tree holds no living person of this name.
3 ancestors of the two children this archive is for
Generation 1 is their parents; the generation counts back from there (The Ancestors). The quarter is the grandparent whose parent links lead up to the person (The Four Quarters).

What rests on a record and what rests on the tree
2 of the 4 have at least one record read for them (Documented); the other 2are known only from the family tree this archive was built from (Family), which cites little and is not evidence. Of the 14 parent, child and marriage links that touch these people, 3 are proved by a register or an index this archive has read; the other 11 come from the tree alone. 1 person has a register reading that disagrees with the tree (Disputed): it is on their own page and the Corrections.
The five words are explained on Method.

That everyone who bears this name is one family. They are gathered here by the name, and a line is drawn between two of them only where the tree or a register draws it. Where this page says "group", it means exactly that and no more.
