On 14 January 1906 at 11:15 in Partanna, Saverio Monasteri, unmarried, age 24, a farmer born and resident in Partanna, married Felicia Muratore, unmarried, age 24, a homemaker born and resident in Partanna.
Saverio’s parents are the late Francesco Monasteri, who had lived in Partanna, and Antonia Bianco, resident in Partanna. Felicia’s parents are the late Antonio Muratore, who had lived in Partanna, and Giovanna Trinceri, resident in Partanna. The original uses surname-first order for the mothers. Both fathers were deceased by the wedding; no exact death dates or parent birth dates are given.
The exact wedding date and locality match Salvatore Monasteri’s naturalization petition. Saverio is his documented arrival name and the name used by the husband and father joining reference on the 1921 passenger manifest. The bride’s name and locality also agree. This combination supports connecting the original marriage to the existing Salvatore and Felicia profiles, retaining their stable IDs and all name variants.
Felicia’s age 24 at marriage conflicts with the petition’s 14 April 1882 birth date, which would make her 23. The original Partanna 1882 birth index, viewer image 205 of 208, separately lists Felicia Muratore with parents Antonio and Giovanna Trinceri. That index supports the parent names but the underlying birth act has not yet been securely located. Neither her exact birth date nor an index number is newly asserted from it.

Four ancestor profiles are added. The marriage record establishes parent-child relationships; it does not separately establish marriages between the parent pairs. Giuseppe Muratore remains Felicia’s documented brother, but these parents are not automatically assigned to him because full versus half sibling status has not been established. Exact parental dates, earlier generations and additional children remain open.
