Calabrian/Sicilian Marriage Certificate
Does anyone know where I can find marriage documents for Calabria or Sicily? I am looking for the document for the marriage of Letterio Forame/Forami to Giuseppa Caminiti. Their children were born in Roccalumera, Sicilia, but I am not sure if they were married or born there as well.

The name Letterio
Does anyone know about the name Letterio? Its rarity? Is it common? Does it have an equivalent English name? I am so confused right now.

Can anyone help me figure out what the Forame surname means? I know that they are from Letojanni, Messina, Sicily, Italy.
