Daughter of Accursio Falco (1823-1898) and Aloisia "Luigia" Riggio (c. 1825-1903). Sister of Antonino (b. 1850), Paolo (b. 1852), Antonina (b. 1858), Gaspare (b. 1861), and possibly others. Half-sister of Vincenzo Falco (b. 1847) and possibly others. Wife of Agostino Falcone (b. 1846). Mother of Accursia Gelardi (1871-1947), Saverio Falcone (b. 1874), Accursio "James" Falcone (1876-1951), Michele Falcone (1879-1950), Eloisa Falcone (b. 1882), Vincenzo Falcone (b. 1884), Antonina "Anna" Gelardi (1886-1953), and Antonia Maria Bentivegna (1889-1960).

She and her husband visited the United States in the early 1900s. They arrived in New York on the S.S. Sicilian Prince on August 23, 1904 with their son Michele and their young grandson Carlo Gelardi. They were probably taking Carlo to rejoin his parents in America. Ignazia and her husband stayed in America for at least a year because they appear on the 1905 New York State Census living at 126 Elizabeth Street with their daughter Accursia and her family. They eventually went back to Sciacca, probably before 1910 since they don't appear on any other census records.

Gravesite Details

I have no actual proof that she is buried in this cemetery, but she would have been buried in Sciacca.
