Ninth Generation

50. Photo Amadeo/Amadio GRAZIANI was born on 20 Jun 1749 in Pescaglia, Lucca, Toscana, Italy.120 Listed as Amadeo on his baptismal certificate. He died on 5 Feb 1809 in Pescaglia, Lucca, Toscana, Italy.121

The spelling and pronunciation of his first name seems to have been an issue. He is referred to as "Amadeo" on both his 1749 baptismal and 1809 death certificates, but in between it gets interesting. On his 1770 marriage certificate the priest wrote "Amadeo volgarmente dº [detto] Amadio (Amadeo commonly called Amadio)." His name was written in 3 different ways on the baptismal certificates of the 13 children from his first marriage: "Amadeo" (#1, 3, 4 and 11), "Amadio" (# 2 and 13) and "Amadeo, o Amadio" (#5-10 and 12).

On his 2nd marriage certificate (1796) it is written "Amadio." The entire issue is curious: "Why was it so necessary to write both options in the official documents?" This is left as an exercise for the reader.
