This is my great grandmother. She was one of 5 children born to Giovanni Battista Madonna (1822-1873) and Maria Giacenta Lippis (1825-1897). Her parents lost 2 children as infants. Her parents married Oct. 28, 1848, before Italy was a country!
She had two sisters that lived: Maria Filomena Madonna (Mar. 27, 1850-Dec 15 1924) & Elvira Donata Madonna (Aug 9, 1859 - )
She married Panfilo G. Natale on Oct. 27, 1877 in the little St. Nicola Catholic Church in Taranta. They had 9 children, one of whom was my grandfather, Pietro James (Jim).
Her occupation is listed as "spinner of wool". Woolen cloth is called "Taranta." There is only 1 small mill left today.
They lived their entire lives in Taranta Peligna, Italy. They were married for almost 50 years! They are buried in the family chapel. She was 69 years old.
