This story is about someone or something else, and names Onofrio Mancini.
Why: Named as a parent in the 1875 marriage act; the identification of the couple with Lucia's parents is Likely (see the marriage). Death act 43 of 1871 calls Rosa Sacco the widow of Pasquale Mancini; it does not name Onofrio. Onofrio Mancini's 1875 marriage act names his late parents as Pasquale and a Sacco whose first name is unclear (possibly Rosa; that reading leans on this record and is not independent support). The identification is Likely, a provisional match on surname, husband's name, town and her death before the marriage. If Onofrio was born about 1844-45, as his 1875 marriage act implies, Rosa was about 45-46 at his birth; if about 1853-54, as Lucia's 1894 birth act implies, she was about 54-55, which would make the match hard to accept.

| Born | between 1844 and 1854, Pescolanciano, Campobasso, Italy Likely evidence: show whyWhy: The records disagree. Aged 30 at his marriage in September 1875 implies about 1844-45; 33 in January 1879, 36 in April 1881 and 42 in January 1887 (his daughters' births) imply about 1844-46. These overlap in 1845. Aged 40 at Lucia's birth in April 1894 implies about 1853-54. The earlier ages agree with each other, but that does not resolve the 1894 age or show that all the records are the same man. Records:

| Marriage | Addolorata Pellegrino; he was 30, a farm laborer, 16 Sep 1875, Pescolanciano, Campobasso, Italy Likely evidence: show whyWhy: Marriage act 7 of 1875, Pescolanciano: Onofrio Antonio Stefano Mancini, farm laborer, 30, married Dolorosa Pellegrino, 19. Lucia's 1894 birth act names her parents Onofrio Mancini and his lawful wife Addolorata Pellegrino; Dolorosa is taken to be a form of Addolorata. No other marriage of an Onofrio Mancini was found in the Pescolanciano marriage registers searched (1875-1893; four 1880 acts are missing from the scan). The identification is Likely, not Confirmed: his age here (30, so born about 1844-45) does not agree with the 40 given in 1894 (born about 1853-54). A witness of the same name and occupation, Gioacchino Del Matto, town servant, appears in Lucia's birth act; that is weak evidence, since a town servant witnessed many acts. Records:
