Looking for Domenico
« on: Wednesday 22 June 11 20:31 BST (UK) »
Domenico Rasini is a bit of a puzzler. An immigrant from Italy, he first turns up marrying Edith Pocock in 1914, and they have a daughter, also called Edith, in 1923. His wife died the following year and Domenico dies in 1935?, but I can't locate the death record at the moment. Supposedly, Domenico was from Northern Italy and was a relative of the famous composer, Rossini, but I take that with a rather hefty pinch of salt. Also, he was supposedly already married but left his wife behind, if that's of any help. I'm really at a loss here, so if anyone can help it would be much appreciated.

Turns up where? where did Edith die?

Holborn Registration District. That's where everything I've found about them occurs. I forgot this in the first one, he married again in 1927 to a Florence Pocock, who I think is some relation of Edith's. Thanks for the swift reply.

@Aghadowey
I've just looked at the original image and Holbeach is a mistranscription, it clearly says Holborn
@juliew
That's the one I was looking for earlier, no wonder I couldn't find it, looking for Rasini
