Notes |
-
Adelaide Avitabile married Salvatore Mascola sometime between May 1896 & June 1897 but so far I cannot find a marriage license or a certificate of marriage from a Catholic Church in New Haven area. Will continue to search.
She was the only witness to the accidental death of Giovanni Mascola on May 5,1903 as mentioned in the autopsy.
She was Christine Mascola Messina's matron of honor on Nov. 23, 1904
Oct. 29, 1907 Salvatore & Adelaide Mascola bought property & buildings on 187 Poplar St., New Haven from Thomas Sullivan for $600.
Salvatore dies on Apr. 9, 1912 leaving Adelaide with 5 small children.
After Sal died on Apr. 9, 1912, Adelaide was made adminstratrix of the estate on Oct. 9, 1912. She was also appointed guardian to her five children John, Amelia, Julia, James & Victor(ia) ages 14, 13, 11, 9, & 7. She had to publish, 3 times, in the Journal Courier a notice to creditors to submit claims to estate.
On May 22, 1913 Adelaide was allowed to sell the property on 185-187 Poplar St. with a $3,500 bond.
On June 4, 1913, the courts held a hearing stating that she had sold 2 parcels of property on 185 & 187 Poplar St. for $1,525. to Frank Monati? and paid the $1,000 1st mortgage on the property. A final court date of June 12th, 1913 was scheduled to close the estate of Salvatore Mascola & Adelaide had to post a notice, 3 times, in the Journal Courier for all creditors to come forward by that date. None did & the estate was closed.
On Sept 21, 1913 Adelaide marries Giovanni Coppola in New Haven.
She was Marie Christina Messina's godmother on Dec. 10, 1917

Salvatore Mascolo, b. Jan 1873, Agerola, Campania, Naples, Italy , d. 9 Apr 1912, New Haven, New Haven, CT (Age ~ 39 years) |
Married |
Between May 1896 and Jun 1897 |
Notes |
- Adelaide arrived in the US in May 1896, had her first child in Apr. 1898. Sal & Adelaide stated that they were married 3 yrs. on the 1900 Census on Jun. 6, 1900. That should have put their marriage between May 1896 and June 1897. Searched through ALL marriage licenses issued in New Haven during May 1896 - Dec. 1897 and could not find one for Salvatore & Adelaide.
I was allowed to search the old church documents for St. Michael's and St. Patricks but found no marriage certificate for Sal & Adelaide. Sent letters to Sacred Heart Church & St. Mary's Church in New Haven 1/3/07. Both churches told me over the phone in Dec. 2007 that they had no record of this marriage. The Archdiocese of Hartford has all the church records from the New Haven County on microfilm; I will spend time there trying to find their marriage record.
Note: Pasquale Parente & AngelaRose Mascola were married on Feb. 20, 1898 & I got a copy of a picture of Salvatore Mascola & Pasquale Parente in 'wedding' attire,Salvatore was sitting, no wedding band on finger & Pasquale was standing, holding a hat with his left hand, looks like a ring on his left hand, has a boutonnaire in his left lapel; I am assuming this was the wedding of Pasquale Parente & Angela Rose Mascola; church records show that Salvatore Mascola was the best man.
