Filadelfio Latteri (1837-12-15 – after 1899) and Benedetta Todaro (1838-07-02 – after 1899) were my great-great-grandparents, being the parents of Josephine Latteri. I have not found death records for either, but they were recorded as still living in 1899 when their daughter Anna married. All records I have found of Benedetta were from San Fratello, Sicily, Italy, but in 1899 Filadelfio is stated to be living in Brindisi, Italy, for unclear reasons.
Filadelfio was the son of Salvatore Latteri (1814 – after 1859) and Rosa Ragusa (1821-12-11 – 1856-08-06), who married in San Fratello on 1836-04-12. Salvatore’s brother Cirino is a great-great-grandfather of actor Al Pacino. Rosa’s surname is sometimes spelled Rausa.
Benedetta was the daughter of Filadelfio Todaro (1807 – bef 1890) and Giuseppa di Fede (c.1810 – 1891-05-07), who married in San Fratello on 1836-10-17. Filadelfio Todaro had previously been married to a woman named Teresa, surname barely legible but perhaps Crimi. Giuseppa remarried to Salvatore Nobile at some unknown date between her husband’s death and hers.
Filadelfio and Benedetta married in San Fratello on 1859-02-21. I have found records of six children. With the exception of Rosa, all were always found in San Fratello, but the children may have left records elsewhere which my searches failed to turn up.
