Cataldo Cammarata
Born: about 1740
Died: before 1824

Meaning of Cammarata [ka-muh-RAH-tuh]: place name

 

        No primary records of my 4th-great grandfather Cataldo Cammarata's birth, marriage, or death have been found.    His name is shown on the marriage and death records, below, of his daughter Anna.  His children, grandchildren and subsequent generations were born or died in Serradifalco.  It's not known where he himself was from.

 

        Civil records were not kept in Sicily until about 1820.  Before that time, records of baptism, confirmation, marriage and death were kept by the church, one of the few entities whose administrators could read or write.  The official church language was Latin.
