Clementina Napolitano
Clementina Napolitano was the daughter of Vincenzo Napolitano and Chiara Riso. She was born in December, 1882 and was the second child of Vincenzo and Chiara. At the age of 16 Clementina married Francesco DeSeta. Francesco was the son of Alberto DeSeta and Serafina Florio. Together, they had at least 3 children while living in the Vaccarizzo section of Montalto Uffugo. Those children were:
- Serafina Chiara, born 1899
- Dorotea Giovannina, born 1901
- Roberto Filippo Eugenio, born 1903
Roberto emmigrated to La Plata, Argentina in 1921. He joined his uncle Costantino who had moved there earlier. Costantino probably arrived in Argentina in 1905. Costantino was Clementina's brother.

The Napolitano Family
Vincenzo was the oldest son of Costantino Napolitano and Pasqualina Aiello and was born around 1850. Vincenzo owned a farm and a mill in the Parantoro section of Montalto Uffugo, like his father and grandfather before him. Vincenzo was the only one of his brothers and sisters to name his children after his parents, thus following Italian tradition. His mother's family, the Aiello's were tailors and shoemakers. His mother's great niece was Sister Elena Aiello, who was beatified by Pope John Paul II in 1992. Vincenzo was the brother of my great grandmother, Angelina.

Clementina was my grandfather's first cousin.
The DeSeta Family
The parents of Francesco DeSeta were Alberto and Serafina Florio. I have recently found the marriage record of Alberto and Serafina in the 1865 marriage records. Also found there was their "prosscetti" records which include their birth acts and other records that give more information on the line of this family. I am working on another page for this family and will include a link to it here soon.
