Francesco was the brother of my great great grandmother Pasqualina Aiello.
Raffaele Aiello was born about 1795. His date of death is unknown at this time. He was already deceased when his wife Giuseppina Golia died in 1862. A recent discovery shows that Raffaele and Giuseppina were married in Cosenza in 1818. Unfortunately this marriage record has not survived and no longer exists so they will remain a mystery. You can read about Raffaele and Giuseppina here.
