Giovanni Burgio

Died: 11 October 1838 ~Serradifalco, Caltanisetta, Kingdom of the Two Sicilies

I have not found any records of baptism or marriage for my great-great-grandfather Giovanni Burgio, but I know his name and approximate birth year, and the names of his parents, from his death records. On his canonical (church) death record, his name is given in Latin, as Joannes. The civil record was made on 12 October 1838, and lists the day of his death as 11 October. The canonical (church) death record was also made on 12 October, but lists no date of death.
