Attached is a page of the 1748 Polizzi Revelli
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/332 ... ndolfa.png
To me, the name looks like 'Gandolfa Palmeri'. Is this a female? If so, is Palmeri her father's surname? her hudsband's surname? Her children's?
"Animes" listed are:
Giovanna
Apottonio son 5
Calogero son 5
Antonino son 3
Giuseppa daughter
Who was Giovanna? What was her age? What was Giuseppa's age?

Re: Help with 1748 Revelli
Unfortunately, the image is rather poor. Name of the person actually seems to be Gandolfa, so that would be a woman. name of one of the children is Apollonio; can't read what is written after Giovanna (might be "madre", but not sure).
Below, it states she (or he) owns a vineyard in xxx Sottana.
that's all I can read

Unfortunately, the familysearch equipment is rather poor, I can read clear text on the actual films, but I cannot make good copies.
It is definitely 'Gandolfa' and not 'Gandolfo'. What I was asking is whether this is definitely a female, and if so, whether her children would also have the 'Palmeri' surname, or whatever surname her husband had.

Re: Help with 1748 Revelli
The picture you posted shows both the last page of a rivelo (census) (that of Gandolfa Palmeri) and the first page of another rivelo, that of Giovanna Collesano with her children Apollonio and Cologero (both 5 years old), Antonino (3 years old) and Giovanna. In the Riveli the age of women were not mentioned.

Thanks! I've been reading these wrong.
