Sharon,

Are these the same attchmentments posted in the Emigration, Immigration, Naturalization and Italian citizenship Thread?

mfjp has offered a different view to make you attchment more legible but the first document is difficult to read because of the size. Could you rescan and re post larger...but please only post it under one thread.

Maria Bambina's doc different view...

Thanks

Nuccia,

Thank you for the info. I didn't see it posted in the other forum so I didn't think it went through. I'll try to scan the birth record again and send it to this post.

suanj,

I am having a hard time with the birth document file. It is very large and if I go any bigger it gets to large to send. Is there another way maybe though e-mail that I can send it to you? I may also be able to write it out for you if you think that will help. Also, you said you already posted the translation of the other document? I haven't found the thread?

Thanks again,
Sharon

suanj,

Could you clarify for me Scolastica Manfredi. Is that correct her last name is Manfredi and her father was Raffaele?

Sweet dreams,
Sharon

Hi Sharon,

I wish I could see a good copy of the Birth Act of Assunta. However, here is most of the translation. I cannot make out what they are stating about the "mother" of the child.

Sorry I'm not much help.
