Found (Session 69) on his son's marriage record — Carlo Lo Cascio × Antonina Lo Verde, 10 October 1877, Diocese of Monreale (Chiusa Sclafani) — which names the groom's parents as Mariano Lo Cascio and Maria Giuseppa Lo Monaco.Confirmed
The Chiusa Sclafani parish records also show him as father of Rosa and Agata Lo Cascio (Carlo's sisters). His own marriage to Maria Giuseppa (~1846) — which would name HIS parents, the Lo Cascio-side 4× greats — is not yet indexed and would need browsing the Chiusa Sclafani marriage register.Confirmed
