Iommi family

Assuming that the N. Musticone was the daughter of Maria and the brother of Frank Musticone, then if she was listed as a niece then maybe Maria was Felice's sister rather than a daughter.
 
They have to be related because of the niece but as pjmburns said she could of just put that for ease. I have a father for Maria so it doesn't match Felice.
 
On 1911 census (link in post 25) Felice and Angelina claim to have been married 44 years. So unless they are lying the 1900 marriage is not them

They may have just married again when they came to England. If that was the case then it would be quite fortunate if Quadrini is her maiden name which we wouldn't have known otherwise.
 
You have a father for the Maria that married Louis Musticone?
I have a Luigi known as Lewis- surname Mastocine but later changed to Musticone.
as the father, but this is a little out of the line where im looking so I could be wrong but that's what I have on my tree. This is for a M. Musticone, but as the name is so unusual could also be a son?

When I saw boarder on the census records I thought they were random people, but they all seemed to be linked.

Actually I think you're looking for someone who married into the name aren't you. so Maybe your original theory is correct about being Felice sister

And searching for births for Angelina Quadrini gives a number of results born about the right time in Arpino, which matches her birthplace on the 1921 census.

A little confusing with all the Marias.

The father of Maria Louisa Musticone that married Frank Iommi was called Luigi/Lewis. Is this who you mean?

I was talking about her mother, also Maria, who married Luigi/Lewis and was probably an Iommi, the possible daughter or sister of Felice Iommi.

Yes that's her I remember it saying Arpino.

so where is she buried ? with Felice, their children Giuseppe, and his wife. Then Giovanni and his wife Lucia?!! nowhere to be found... There was a little something in a news article about Lucia passing in 1966 but no mention of where. Then Giovani when the year after.

Yes that would make sense 100 percent!!! very confusing with all the Marias.....

There is a "thanks" notice in the paper in June 1966 and a "birthday memoriam" in Sept 1966 for the wife of Giovanni and mother of Alfred and Hilda.

lovely :)) I will save those.
So there was one granddaughter at that time too.
 
She appears the only one, the daughter of Hilda and her second husband. She had a son, Anthony, with her first husband but he b and d in 1938 sadly.

Alfred didn't marry as far as I can see.
Ok I’ll put her daughter down :)
Ahh that’s sad she lost her first baby :(

Are you using ancestry for all the info? :)
 
If they are at St Joseph's then I don't think there will be a gravestone. I have a list of names from stone inscriptions and there is no Iommi. The graveyard is, sadly, in a bit of a state.
Olton Friary had a big safety purge several year's ago and a number of unsafe gravestones were removed but the churchyard is kept tidy.

Yes im thinking the four im looking for may not have gravestones but would be really nice to know where they are.
You think its worth me checking with solihull council?
 
The other place in Solihull would be Robin Hood Cemetery which is council run. You can contact the cemetery direct and they are helpful but I would wait until there has been a reply from Olton.
