Giovanni Maria (Mimmia) Meloni
Giovanni Maria (Mimmia) Meloni, son of Giacomo Meloni and Teresa Pinna, was born on 19 Dec 1870 and died on 1 Feb 1905 at age 34.
Tommy Fregosi had this information from his mother’s documents. Noting the death-year to be identical to that of his father, I double-checked the information in the Ozieri microfilm rolls. He does appear in the 1905 death index for Ozieri, entry 25. He died a contadino at the age of 35, with a person I read as Salvatore Biddau and one other reporting. His parents’ names, Giacomo Meloni and Teresa Pinna, although read with difficulty, are confirmed therein, as is the name of his wife.
Giovanni married Antonia Luigia Corrozu on 23 Aug 1899.
Children from this marriage were:
Rosalia Meloni, who was born on 14 Apr 1900 in Ozieri and died on 2 Nov 1912 in Ozieri at age 12; and
Giovanna Maria Meloni, who was born on 22 Feb 1905 in Ozieri and died on 22 Feb 1905 in Ozieri.
