Biography

Gaetano Pomilla (also spelled "Pumilla," aka "di Puma," and sometimes "Puma Pumilla"), the son of Nicolo' Pumilla and Sigismonda Carrabba, is born on 21 January 1747 and is baptized the next day. His godparents are Tommaso Vinci and his wife, Antonia.[1]

Gaetano marries Maria Castro on 8 November 1772. His parents have both died by this time.

Gaetano and Maria have at least thirteen children: Paolo (1775), Ciro (c. 1776), Sigismondo (c. 1778), Carmelo (1779), Nicolo' (1782), Giuseppa Maria (1785), Emmanuela (1786), Antonia (1789), Sigismonda (c. 1791), Calogero (1793), Lucia (1795), and two daughters named Bernarda (1797 and 1800).

Paolo is born and baptized 3 March 1775. His godparents are Leoluca and Maria Botta, brother and sister, both unmarried.[2]

Ciro, Sigismondo, and Sigismonda's birth years are based on their reported ages in 1807.

Carmelo is born and baptized 15 January 1779. This record calls his father Gaetano Puma Pumilla. Carmelo's godparents are Angelo and Rosalia Trumbatore, a married couple.[3]

Nicolo' is born and baptized 8 December 1782, named after his paternal grandfather. His godparents are Castrenze and Arcangela Trumbatore.[4]

Giuseppa Maria is born and baptized on 12 January 1785. Her godparents are Maestro Gioachino and Francesca Triolo, a married couple.[5]

Emmanuela is born and baptized 15 August 1786, named after her paternal aunt. Her godparents are Ignacio and Salvatrice Sanfilippo, a married couple.[6]

Antonia is born and baptized 29 January 1789, named after her maternal grandmother. Her godparents are Ignacio Sanfilippo and Giovanna di Miceli, who is unmarried.[7]

Calogero is born and baptized 1 August 1793. His godparents are Andrea and Biagia Marino, a married couple.

Lucia is born and baptized 17 May 1795. Her godparents are Bernardo Pumilla, who is unmarried, and Pietra di Puma, wife of Nicolo'.

The first daughter named Bernarda is born and baptized 15 November 1797. This record gives her surname as di Puma. Her godparents are Giuseppe and Lucia di Trapani, a married couple. She is presumed to have died before her sister is born in 1800.

The second daughter named Bernarda is born 7 April 1800 and baptized the next day. Her godparents are Biagio and Maria Colajanni, son and mother.

Emmanuela marries Leoluca Guzzetta on 14 November 1805.

In the 1807 stato delle anime, Gaetano Pomilla, 59 (b. 1748), lives in la vanella, an alley, behind Santa Maria (esce la strada dietro di Santa Maria, ripiglia la vanella di sotto) with his wife Maria, 51 (b. 1756), and eight of their unmarried children: Ciro, 31 (b. 1776), Sigismondo, 29 (b. 1778), Carmelo, 27 (b. 1780), Antonina, 19 (b. 1788), Sigismonda, 16 (b. 1791), Calogero, 14 (b. 1793), Lucia, 12 (b. 1795), and Bernarda, 7 (b. 1800).

Their neighbors include the three orphans of Ciro Cascio, the young families of Rosario Quaglino and Francesco Cascio, and the family of Lucia Saccaro, a widow with six children.

Antonina marries on 30 October 1808. This record calls her mother "Antonia."

Sigismonda marries Simone Bonanno on 18 February 1810.

Carmelo marries Rosa Sciacchitano on 10 June 1810.

Sigismondo marries Teresa Mancuso on 27 December 1810.

Lucia marries Vincenzo di Puma on 1 October 1815.

Gaetano dies at the reported age of 77 (c. 1740) in November 1817 in Corleone after receiving last rites. His wife, Maria, survives him. He is buried at the Chiesa di Sant'Elena.[8]

Maria dies around age 57 (b. 1765) on 13 December 1822.

Calogero marries Liboria Mustacchia on 2 April 1823. This record gives Calogero's surname as di Puma.

Ciro dies at age 60 (b. 1777) on 16 July 1837, at the height of the first recorded cholera outbreak in western Europe. This record does not mention whether Ciro has ever married.

Four days later, Bernarda dies, reportedly at age 30 (she is 37). This record does not mention whether she has ever married.

Lucia dies at age 70 on 8 October 1865, the widow of Vincenzo.
