I don't see the marriage record on the two pages you posted

Re: Translation Request of 3 Church Documents
On the first one, isn't she the daughter of Angelo Munisteri Pino, not Puma?
Re: Translation Request of 3 Church Documents
On the marriage record, maybe it's the double surname - Munisteri Pino that is the problem. I do notice that on the right hand side by the paperclip, there is a record for an Angela Munisteri. What is that record about?

Re: Translation Request of 3 Church Documents
Yes, you are correct about the first one. I typed it incorrectly. She was the daughter of deceased Angelo (Munisteri Pino` is understood and not written in the record).
I have to look again at that marriage record, but I'm pretty sure there are completely different names in it.

Re: Translation Request of 3 Church Documents
Okay the marriage record is for Angelo Munisteri (no mention of the name Pino`). He was the son of dec Giuseppe (Munisteri) and living Dorotea Carlino. The bride was Angela (Casale??? first letter of the name is hard to decipher since it's been written over) of deceased Liborio (surname ?) and dec Giuseppa (??) Arnone.

Re: Translation Request of 3 Church Documents
Thank you. Now I have to figure out how Grazia Munisteri got "Pino" added to her surname. Probably a marriage that I know nothing about.
Re: Translation Request of 3 Church Documents
Didn't you have trouble in the past with double surnames in this town? I've had that problem in another Sicilian town for my husband's ancestry.

Re: Translation Request of 3 Church Documents
Yes, Pagliarello Puma was my biggest problem. I have since been told by a person who wrote a book on Racalmuto, that Pagliarello was a nickname (little haystack) for a Puma branch and that as families became larger, different branches would be given nicknames (little "insults") to distinguish them from other branches. Another historian told me that 4 branches of the Puma family emerged in the 1500s, each with their own nickname, but i have not been able to relate them to the original Puma branch, nor find the original Puma branch.
Re: Translation Request of 3 Church Documents
Yes, I recall that double surname in your ancestry. At least you've managed to track down some explanations. Thanks for sharing with us.
