Is this death acct for Stefano Sassani?

Post by scraig32 »

I am trying to find the death acct of Stefano Sassani. His wife is Incoronata Sassani. I believe this is his document bc I see both of these names in it. However, I am confused bc I see other names too. Could someone please translate? Thank you so much!! Suzanne

Yes, this appears to be your Stefano Sassani, husband of Incoronata Sassani
The other names are the declarants of the death, and his parents’ names.

Translation:
#16
Dated 9 February 1817 before the official in Comune of Riccia
Appeared Giuseppe Sassani, brother [of the deceased] age 79, peasant farmer residing in this town; and Pavalino Sassani, brother, age 49, peasant farmer residing in this town; to declare that on the 9th of the above stated month, at 11 AM, Stefano Sassani, son of Nicola [Sassani] and Saveria Cugino; husband of Incoronata Sassani; of age 53, peasant farmer residing in this town, died at home.

At the bottom the declarants made their sign (cross) as they could not write; and the official signed.
