Biography

Maria Randisi is born 18 October 1794 and baptized the next day. She is the daughter of Calogero Randisi and Arcangela Quaglino. Her godparents are Maestro Giuseppe and Caterina Graviano, a married couple.

Maria marries Salvatore Lanza, son of the late Angelo Lanza and Maria Ciavarello, on 25 January 1815. Her father has died by this time, and her mother is living.

Maria and Salvatore have at least one child, who is also named Maria (c. 1818), after her paternal grandmother.

Maria's sister Francesca, a widow, dies at age 50 (b. 1787) on 20 July 1837, at the height of the first recorded cholera outbreak in western Europe.

Maria dies the next day, reportedly at age 40 (she is 42). Her husband survives her.

Maria, the daughter, marries Francesco lo Jacono on 18 February 1838.^[1]
