Mary Ursula DELL’ANNA

#MondayMemories #FamigliadiItalia #FindoftheDay #MaryDellAnna One of the great things about genealogy is unexpectedly finding a piece of the puzzle. My Aunt Mary, her husband Pietro and their young son travelled to Gordona, Italy in 1933 to visit the Dell’Annna and D’Agostino families. While there Aunt Mary contracted scarlet fever and died. Before Uncle Pete could return with his son he needed a document from the US consul confirming the death of an US citizen abroad. I found that certificate online. Beside death info it revealed other important facts. I do love this hobby (obsession)

Hakan

  • Hakan 12 Great grandfather
    image image ~Tracing my Swedish family back to my 12 great grandfather, Håkan. (Nicolai Haquinas) and our Scottish connection. Håkan was from Aberdeen, Scotland were he was a parish priest . The family emigrated to Dalsland (Frändefors) in the early 1500’s. Hakan continued as the Prost and in 1561 was made Vicar (Bishop) of the region. He received six casks of grain as his bishops salary. Four of his sons would also become Vicars. We are lucky to have a photo of his signature from the document elevated him to Vicar.
