What is the correct spelling of the name Accusorio? It's a name that has been used many times in my Cortese family from Sciacca. Here in the US it's evolved to August and Charles.

Are you talking about a personal name?

I looked for clues here, but could not find any--http://www.conigliofamily.com/LatinSicilianEnglishGivenNames.htm. Maybe you'll find something I am missing.

I believe there is some transcription error.

The name "Accusorio" does not appear in Italian surnames.

Instead, the surname "Accursio" is common in Sicily.

Try walking around with this surname

Could it be Soccorso after the patron saint of Siacca Holy Mary of Soccorso

Paolo Venturini

I agree with Giovanni, and I think the correct given name should be Accursio, who seems to be common in Sicily, and specifically in Sciacca, where Sant'Accursio is whorshipped.

an Accursio Cortese from Sciacca made a petition for naturalization in 1916 in New York:

Hope it helps.

Interesting about the saint because the name Ignazio is also very common and a favorite saint in Sciacca. That naturalization record is for my grandfather’s brother, thank you.
