Biography

Carmela Colletto is born in Corleone of unknown parents, and is raised by Angelo Colletto and Filippa Lanza, who are called her adoptive parents in the record of her marriage. Carmela marries Angelo and Filippa's natural son, Leonardo, on 16 October 1805. Angelo has died by this time.^[1]

Leonardo and Carmela have at least two children, Filippa (c. 1808) and Concetta (c. 1814).

Because Filippa is named after her paternal grandmother, I estimate she is born before her sister.

Concetta marries at least twice, first to Vincenzo di Giorgio, of unknown parents, on 7 January 1834. Leonardo has died by this time.^[2]

Concetta remarries to Vincenzo di Giglia on 15 January 1843. Carmela has died by this time.^[3]

Filippa marries Vincenzo Tinnirello on 6 February 1843.^[4]

Death

Carmela dies at the reported age of 50 on 14 July 1837 in Corleone.^[5]
