A public ItalianGenealogy Busso thread reports Anna Maria Santangelo, born 13 February 1846 in Busso, as the woman who married Biase Iaciofano on 5 July 1866. A user-supplied FamilySearch Family Tree source-list excerpt separately reports a 1910 Cuyahoga County, Ohio marriage-index clue for Lorenzo Taciofano that names parents Biagio and A. Maria Santangelo. If original Busso and Ohio records verify those claims, Anna Maria may be the mother of the Busso Giovanni/Lorenzo comparison candidates, but there is no document-backed bridge to Tony Iacofano's Cleveland John/Giovanni line.
Still checking
Why this is not settled yet
Dates not yet resolved
Can the original Busso Nati 1846 record No. 5 verify Anna Maria Santangelo's birth date, parents, and exact name?
Can the original Busso Matrimoni 1866 record No. 10 verify her marriage to Biase Iaciofano, his widower status, both sets of parents, and the 5 July 1866 date?
Do original Busso Nati 1876 or 1877 records identify a Giovanni Iaciofano as a child of Biase/Biagio Iaciofano and Anna Maria Santangelo?
Does the underlying 1910 Cuyahoga County marriage record for Lorenzo Taciofano and Palmino Tanno verify Lorenzo's age, birthplace, parents, and surname reading?
Is there any U.S. document tying Tony's John/Giovanni Iacofano to this Busso family cluster?

Lead created 24 April 2026 during the Campobasso/Toro research-packet pass.
This lead is clue-only. The supporting records currently available in the repo are a public forum thread and a user-supplied FamilySearch Family Tree source-list excerpt, not original civil-register images.
Do not use this lead to update canonical person records or to merge the Busso branch into Tony Iacofano's line without original-record evidence.
