Marriage Record - Carmelo Cappadona

Post by ItalianbellaSA »

I have located my great-great grandparents marriage record. Please translate with as much detail as possible for other names and dates. It is number 21 - and it is on two pages. I don't know her first name. I have deciphered it as Vennera Matufu.

Thank you very much.

It is hoped that the research I am doing helps to discover, preserve and celebrate my family history.

My guess for Venera's mother's surname is "Lanaia"
Giuseppe "Pippo" Moccaldi

I have now found Venera Matafu, my great-great grandmother's birth record from Librizzi in 1842.

If someone can please translate for me I would appreciate it. I know her parents are Francesco and Carmela Lanaia, if their ages are listed that would be helpful. Thanks.
