  Notes for IGNAZIO X MODICA:
I do not think that this little baby belongs here. However, we have a death certificate for Ignzao Modica, age 1, who died in Sant' Agata Di Militello. Who are his parents? We will never know as the death record sates son of "ginitari ignati" - Don't know. However, my guess is that the mayor, priest and Modica family does know the child's parents. The lines for them are inked out. Is this a baby of a Modica daughter or Modica son? Who knows. I wanted to include this baby somewhere in our records and so placed him here with my family.
