Title: Angelomaria (Angelo) Mattia
Date Created: 1910, 1910
Summary: Angelomaria Mattia (1841 - 1925) is sometimes called Angelo Maria, and is often credited with being the first Italian to arrive in Newark’s First Ward, along with his brother-in-law, Alfonso Ilaria (1853 - 1905). Born in Calabritto, Italy, Angelomaria was married to Filomena Ilaria (1843 - 1915) of Caposele, Italy. They had four children, two of whom survived infancy: Petrino B. Mattia (1869 - 1953) and Rizziere/Richard F. Mattia (1872 - 1961). Original is in family archives; a print is at the Museum of the Old First Ward, in Newark, NJ.

Title: Petrino B. Mattia
Date Created: 1910, 1910
Summary: Given that Petrino B Mattia (1869 - 1953) and his brother Rizziere/Richard F. Mattia (1872 - 1961) were professional photographers, it is baffling that this portrait was created in another Newark studio. Original prints are in among the collections of many family members.
