Pasquale Zingone

Pasquale Zingone

His family

Pasquale Zingone was the son of Emmanuele Zingone and Maria DeLuca. He was born about 1834 in Montato Uffugo and married Serafina Bisceglia in the late 1850's or early 1860's. I know I am missing the records for most of their children, but here are the children I have for them so far.


  • Maria Stella born 1863
  • Maria Concetta born 1866
  • Fiorentina born 1871
  • Risaliaborn 1877
  • Errico born 1877

Pasquale Zingone

and his wife Serafina Bisceglia

Fiorentina ZingoneI have had contact with a branch of the Zingone family in the United States.  Two Americans who I have contact with are the grand daughters of Zingone sisters. Maria Stella Zingone and Fiorentina Zingone were the daughters of Pasquale Zingone and his wife Serafina Bisceglia. A tragic, yet very interesting family story has survived the years and they told me their family story. Maria Stella and her younger sister Fiorentina married brothers from San Vincenzo La Costa with the Fillippo surname. The story says that the younger sister Fiorentina had to marry at a young age because their parents died in a fire that resulted from an earthquake. A very tragic story. Yet, I did not think I could do anything to confirm this story. The death records do not have any notes regarding the cause of death. They merely report that the death occurred. While transcribing the death acts of 1880 I came across the record for the death of Pasquale. But a record of the death of his wife Serafina was not there. The record listed Pasquale as the husband of Serafina, not the widower. So Serafina must have survived him. Story not true? I don't know. But what I do know is I noticed a pattern in the 1880 death records prior to finding the record reporting the death of Pasquale. This began in the September records. I did find the marriage bann for Fiorentina, however, this record proved that the Filippo men were not brothers. Fiorentina was 15 when she married Carmine Filippo.

The Family of Pasquale

Emmanuele Zingone And Maria DeLuca

I do not know much about Emmanuele Zingone and Maria DeLuca yet. I have several people whose father is listed as Emmanuele but since the name of their mother is not listed, I cannot link them to this family yet. So far I can positively identify three of their children. Chiara, born about 1837 married Arcangelo Rua, Pietro who married Concetta DiTommaso and Pasquale. Emmanuele was the son of Tomasso Zingone and Teresa Lanfre.
