Trying to figure out the meaning of “family clan ditta pierazzi”
hey there, I’m trying to find out what “family clan ditta pierazzi” means. If anyone could help me out that would be so wonderful.
I’m going to attach an image of a list of my great grandparents and their children. I’m also trying to find family still residing in Italy for the siblings that had not immigrated.
My great great grandpa is Matteo di Zanatta and my great great grandmother is Luigia Borsato.
it lists “clan name Ditta Pierazzi” then their children and what is known of the children’s children.
my great grandfather is Arcangelo Zanatta born 1883 in Treviso Italy. (I was always told they come from Camalò Treviso Italy). He immigrated to Canada in 1906, and he lived in Britt, Ontario.
Then my grandmother is Regina Zanatta she was born in Britt, Ontario.
I’m really would liking to connect to distant cousins/relatives in Italy if possible. I’m trying to piece together the unknowns of my family tree.

Do you actually have any Italian records? What is the source for this "Clan name Ditta Pierazzi"? My suspicion is that someone misread the Italian word "detta" for Ditta and that Pierazzi may be a soprannome or sort of family nickname used to distinguish different branches of a large family sharing the same surname.
Unfortunately there are currently not any records online for Camalò (which is actually a hamlet of the comune of Povegliano) after 1815, so to do any research you would need to contact the comune of Povegliano directly.

thank you so much for the response. I appreciate it.
how does one go about contacting the commune of Povegliano directly?
I have found that there are records on two of my family members in the Treviso State Archives. But I wasn’t able to click to view any documents but I got the select number and the archival unit number, I contacted them for further information as well.Do you know where else I could search to find records on births, marriages, deaths, military, etc in Povegliano, Treviso, Italy?
Thanks in advance, I super appreciate it. If you’re able to directly message me I have a lot more info and details I could share regarding the family members I’m aware of.
