help with birth certificate

mikesantorosr · Post by **mikesantorosr** » 21 Feb 2012, 02:01

The birth certificate for Carmela La Bella is enclosed. I am wondering why her husbands name is written on the corner of the document as an add. Does that mean she wont have a marriage license later. Also can anyone please tell me if any additional info on the certificate indicates her grandparents names.

Thanks

The writing in the left column is a notation that she married Vito on the 1st of February 1908. "Add." is an abbreviation for "on the day"

No grandparents' names

Father was Salvatore, age 30, peasant farmer
Mother was Angela Maria Lampo(sp?)
Child was born on the 14th of March and presented at the town hall on the 16th to the official for the recording of the birth.

The names toward the bottom are witnesses to the recording of the birth and usually not related to the family. Just happened to be at the town hall.

"Addì" (with an accent on the ending "ì") is a contraction of "Al dì" =(as Tessa stated) "On the day"

"dì" = "day"

When we are not sure about the spelling we add (sp) or (?) after the uncertain word.
Tessa meant that he was not sure about the surname Lampo.
I gave another look at the record and I believe it is Lorusso (which is a rater popular surname in Avigliano.
The age of the mother is not recorded.

On Feb 1 1908 Maria Carmela married Vito Portanova.

Hi Mike,

NO, it is not you who got "demoted"

Debi was referring to the quote of Livio's when he referred to ME as a "HE"

Just a joke among the volunteers.

You are still an honored guest to the forum... no demotion!!!
