Hello and welcome to IG! :-D

I checked the manifest you referenced above and saw that Vincenzo's age puts his birth at about 1867...

I checked the birth records for ISNELLO from 1867 through 1872 and did not find a Vincenzo Cannici, but did find other Cannici births...
So I looked at the index for 1866 and found this birth record for VINCENZO CANNICI :-D
HOWEVER, the parents are not those you listed above...
But I will post it for you...

Record is #39 dated 6 March 1866 in ISNELLO
Father is listed as Antonino Cannici, age 31, a shoemaker, son of deceased Rosario
Mother is listed as Nicolina di Maria, his wife, daughter of Vincenzo
Child was given the name Vincenzo

What document identifies the parents' names that you have?
Do you know the names of any of Vincenzo's siblings? That would help. I found several other Cannici birth records about the same time in Isnello. If one or more of them are siblings of Vincenzo it would help to confirm (or rule out) the names of his parents :-)

Hey thanks . That is the right line . My Great-Grandmother was Anna Cannici . Those were her siblings. The name I had also was Micholina so I'm assuming its Nicholina since that would fit in with the family . :-)
