birth record #46 - Edmundo Nicola Francesco Purcaro
on the second page, I read father is listed as Francesco Dottore Purcaro.
I am assuming this is not a middle name. Is Dottore translated literally as a doctor (as in medical doc)? Or is it some other title?
Also, I read his birth date as 6 Nov 1905. Is this accurate?
Thanks for your help,
Donna

The infant's father was a medical doctor, as the word medico appears after the father's age in the record. From what I understand, anyone who graduates with a degree in Italy may be called a dottore, but usually there is additional info which indicates what that person's course of study was.
Birth in this record took place on Nov 13, 1908.

To be precise... he was a surgeon ["medico chirurgo"]

WOW.....
many many thanks for translating Francesco's profession. he is my grandmother's uncle so knowing that he was so well educated begins to put some of her stories in context.
thanks so very much.
