Maria Ledda

Maria, wife of Francesco Lai, appears to have been still living when her daughter Pietruccia Lai married in 1886. Since Maria's daughter was born in the 1850s, Maria herself may have been born in the 1830s.

Of the five women with that name I find in the Ozieri death indices, none appear to be a match. Perhaps, as with her husband, she did not die in Ozieri. I have so far found no Ledda in Nughedu either, with the exception of a Maria Filomena Culeddu Ledda, a daughter of Salvatore and Ciccia who died there in 1877.

Checks on post-1905 death indices show a Mariantonia Ledda dying in 1906 who does not appear to be her either, unless she re-married. Did she die after 1910?

Today, there are 1270 Ledda attestations in Sardinia, 9 of them in Ozieri: http://elenco.libero.it/elencotel/public/RicercaOmonimie.jsp

Maria married Francesco Lai.
