Dear Jim Young,
i am confused beceause i found as last name Patriziano in italian, but also i found Patriciano in spanish. In Italy there is a village near Trieste, Padriciano. As you said about the wrong spelling, i am sure that every priest wrote the names in different way. From the archives of catholic church in Santorini i arrived to Giacomo Patriciano in 1756 from the family tree and in a document from the wedding book just the this (1731, Antonius Niceta Patriciano cum .....). I think that the name Niceta isnt so italian. I cant find other elements in order to connect my granfather (yes thats true he is an ancestor in fact)with his past and origins, He was a pirate, a captain, a priest, a crusador ?? he was the first of the family in the island ??? Why and from where he left ???
