Help with Alfano marriage document

Post by Sam.Alfano »

This is the 1885 marriage document of my great-grandparents Agostino Alfano and Rosalia Martorana. I'm able to decipher bits and pieces, but would appreciate some help, especially with the date (November something) and names of their parents. I would be really grateful for some help :)

The marriage date is not in this picture (maybe it is somewhere else in the page).
Banns were posted on November 1, 8 and 15 1885
Agostino Alfano was the son of Salvatore Alfano and of Geronima Gaglio
Rosalia Martorana was the daughter of deceased Salvatore Martorana and of living Elisabetta Gaglio

Thank you Livio! Much appreciated. I was really confused with "Geronima". I would have never figured that one out.
