Zampese - Marco

[HannahM]

Hello,
I am trying to find information on relatives, headstones or further dates of a great grandparent who immigrated from Italy to New Zealand.
I have a family member heading too Rubbio, Italy in a few weeks with hopes too connect with distant relatives.

What we know so far:
Marco Zampese, married Giovanna (nee ??). Died New Zealand
Children:
Angelo Zampese b. 1927, d. 2003
Antonio Zampese, b.1935, d. 1975
Caterina Marshall (nee Zampese),
Maria Piner (nee Zampese).

We are needing information on Marco & his wife if you have anything available that may assist.
Thanks!!!

Hi,
Thank you so much for attaching some links (shame we can't read Italian).
We have zero documents of theirs from Italy. If you have access to these or can provide some assistance it would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Well, you've got 3 Italian documents now

And roughly they contain:
Marco’s father Angelo was 38 when he was born on the 11th (“undici”) of Sep 1900. His mother was Catterina Brunello. The family resided in Conco.
Giovanna Vivian was born on 26 Oct 1903 to Abramo Vivian (49y, residence: Bassano) and Maria Bonato.
Marco and Giovanna were married on 17 Feb 1923 in Conco. Both were living in Conco et the time of their marriage.
All these individuals seemed to have been "villicos" i.e something like peasants/peasant villagers.


Tip:
I used Google Translate to learn to understand the basics of these documents. Give it a try yourself, it gets easier the more you do it.

Thank you very much.

Do you know of any websites where we can find Marco or Giovanna's cemetery/headstones; or links too their other descendants?

You can check/confirm years of birth, marriage, death etc here
https://www.bdmhistoricalrecords.dia.govt.nz/search

But they don't give a great deal of detail. Note access is restricted by period since event.

Check the newspapers for the children and burials for Marco/Giovanna (1970 and 1974). They mention names.

Apologies, I meant their parents headstones in Italy & any siblings.

Hoping they are buried in Conco or Rubbio?
