Atti di Nascita Translation

[EMTLP]

Would someone please translate the following birth record for Vito LoRusso b. 18 Nov 1884 in Avigliano. My father used to go to visit this man's family as a child. He knows that they are related but is unsure of the connection as both husband and wife have the same last name.

The birth act was recorded on Nov 17 1884.
Vito Lorusso was born in Avigliano, borgata Frusci (Frusci is a small Village 10Km North of Avigliano and belonging to the same municipality, on Nov 15 1884. The father was Nicola Lorusso who had an affair with a woman that was not his relative nor in-law.

The side note on the left states that Nicola Lorusso (Vito's father) married Maria Giovanna Lovallo in Avigliano on July 18 1896 and that both recognized Vito as their legitimate son.
The side note on the right(next page) states that Vito married Caterina Minerva on Oct 14 1905.

And to anticipate your next question

Thanks for all this information but I have another piece of the puzzle (hopefully). In the 1920 census there is a Jennia LaRosa (LoRusso) who I believe to be Maria Giovanna Lovallo LoRusso. I found her again in the 1930 census under the same name living with her son Vito. In the 1920 census she is living with an Anna who is claimed to be her daughter aged 40 and single. This would mean she was born abt. 1880 meaning that there was another child of Nicola's illegitimate marriage. There is a third person, Luca listed as daughter of Jennia aged 15 which would have meant she was born when Maria Giovanna was 60. Considering Nicola and Maria Giovanna were married when Nicola was 53, Luca could have been their only child. Thoughts?

What makes you believe that Jennie Larosa is Jennie Lorusso?

[EMTLP]

Maria Giovanna Lovallo was married to Nicholas Vaccaro before she married Nicholas LoRusso later in life. I agree that Jennia LaRossa is Maria Giovanna Lovallo Vaccaro LoRusso. I believe that Maria Giovanna Lovallo had a son Gennaro Lovallo with her first husband Nicholas Vacccaro. Gennaro can be found living on Fox Island Road the same street where Maria Giovanna LoRusso (census mispellings LaRusso and Larosa ) lives with Vito LoRusso.
