Birth/Baptism records for my great aunt.
« on: Friday 12 May 17 18:15 BST (UK) »
Hi I have been trying to find information on my great aunt Assunta/Susan Riani . I had orginally thought she was born around 1916, but have just found out she was  born in 1911. I think it may be Belfast, but not sure completely.. She could possibly have been named Maria Assunta. Any information woukd be greatly appreciated. Many thanks

Her parents were Italiano/Etaliano/Carlo/Charles Riani and Rosina/ Rose Ann Sherlock.

Would the surname show a birth in 1911?

Many thanks

See that we've wasted our time since you already have this information (and more)  :-\
http://www.belfastforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=67154.0

Contrary to what was posted there (reply #27) the Will Extract does not say "Susan Riani was the sole benificiary to the estate of Rose Riani who died in August 1964."
Riani, Rose of 1 saint James Crescent Belfast widow died 5 August 1964 at Wakehurst House Belfast City Hospital Belfast Probate Belfast 28 September to Susan Riani spinster. Effects £489 10s.
What it does say is that Susan Riani was granted probate for the estate of Rose Riani.

Yes, I do have that information. Thank you. What I don't have is a birth or baptism record for my great aunt, which is why with new information that she was born in 1911 and not 1916 as once thought,  I hoped I may be able to find information on her now with your help.

Unfortunately the information you have provided I already had.

I do appreciate your time and the searches you have done.

Thank you for the information on my great grandmothers will. I must say I was upset at the thought she had left my Grandfather out of her will,, but that may not have been the case.

I really appreciate that information.

Thank you
