FamilySearch metadata confirms the Busso Nati 1832 image reference for a user-supplied birth transcription naming Biase Iaciofano, reportedly born 12 December 1832 in Busso to Giuseppe Iaciofano and Marianna Ranallo. A second FamilySearch metadata capture confirms the Busso Matrimoni 1858 image reference for a user-supplied marriage transcription naming Biase Iaciofano and Mariantonia Priano. Additional user-supplied source details point to daughter Filomena in 1861, Mariantonia's death in 1865, and an Ohio 1910 marriage index for Lorenzo Taciofano as son of Biagio and A. Maria Santangelo. This makes it plausible that the 1858 Priano husband and the later Santangelo husband are the same man, but the original images and intervening records have not been reviewed.
Still checking
Why this is not settled yet
1832 –
Can the original Busso Nati 1832 image 31 of 33 be viewed and transcribed directly to verify Biase's birth, parents, and record number?
Can the original Busso Matrimoni 1858 image 16 of 34 be viewed and transcribed directly to verify the Biase Iaciofano and Mariantonia Priano marriage details?
Can the original Busso Morti 1865 image verify Mariantonia Priano's death before the reported 1866 Biase Iaciofano and Anna Maria Santangelo marriage?
Does the 1866 marriage record identify Biase's parents as Giuseppe Iaciofano and Marianna Ranallo, and does it describe him as widowed?
Does the 1866 marriage record identify Anna Maria Santangelo's parents as Domenico Santangelo and Teresa Sepede/Sepede?, and does it resolve the Santangelo birth-date discrepancy?
What source supports the FamilySearch profile's reported 11 June 1888 death date for Biase?
Does an original Busso birth record for Giovanni Iaciofano around 1876 connect him to this Biase, and is there any U.S. evidence connecting that Giovanni to Tony Iacofano's John/Giovanni line?
Notes
Notes
Lead created 24 April 2026 during investigation of user-provided FamilySearch source details.
Treat the 1832, 1858, 1861, 1865, and 1894 facts as metadata-confirmed targets with user-supplied transcription, not image-verified facts.
The 1865 Mariantonia Priano death clue makes the 1858 Priano marriage and the forum-reported 1866 Anna Maria Santangelo marriage fit chronologically, but original records still need to supply matching identity anchors.
lead-anna-maria-santangelo-1846 was added on 24 April 2026 to hold the reported second-wife/mother clue separately from Biase until the 1866 Busso marriage and related child records are viewed.
Public search snippets viewed 26 April 2026 surfaced forum-derived detail for the reported 5 July 1866 marriage to Anna Maria Santangelo, including Biase as age 34 and son of deceased Giuseppe Iaciofano and Maria Ranallo; preserve this only as a target for the original Matrimoni record.
The 1910 Ohio Lorenzo Taciofano marriage index clue may be important because it places a reported son of Biagio and A. Maria Santangelo in Cuyahoga County, Ohio; it does not yet connect to Tony's Cleveland Iacofano line.
Do not connect this lead to Tony Iacofano's John/Giovanni Iacofano line without generation-by-generation proof.
