Ida has been gathering documents to gain her Italian Citizenship, and located this wonderful record of the marriage of Giovanni and Antonetta Santomassimo! Here's the story of how she uncovered it;
"We weren't sure where they were married, but St Donato Church, our family parish wasn't built until 1915 and they were married in 1908. George thought it had to be St. Michael. All it took was a phone call and a very helpful church secretary who very nicely took a photo of the original document (which she said is in a ledger that is falling apart!) and sent it to me." --Ida I hope you enjoy this little piece of our history, and thank you Ida for sleuthing and sharing!
