I would like to know what the birth record says... I don't speak Spanish.

Is Urbano and woman's name?

Thanks,
Robert

This record is for a male Urbano Maria Lizzi, age 3, the son of Michele Lizzi, a carpenter in Troia, and Rossini Consiglio (spelling of her name???)*, a housewife. He died yesterday on March 20, 1880 at 7:30 P.M. in the house at 8 via Leonardo.

It seems that in this town, the first names Urbano and Urbana were used for males and females.

*I would have been inclined to say that the mother's first name was Consiglia and her last name Rossini, but none of the other names in the record are written with the surname first followed by the first name. Rossini is a surname in the town and Consiglia was a common first name there. You would need to find this couple on other records to be sure of the order of the names.
