Dated Oct 8, 1892 at 12:15
Groom: Salvatore Mule', age 24, never before married, born and resident in Villalba; son of deceased Placido (Mule'), who was a town resident when he was alive, and Graazia Guccione, resident there
Bride: Maria Fruscione, age 19, housewife, born in Villalba and resident there; daughter of Salvatore Fruscione and Gisueppa Vizzini
Witnesses were Damiano Plumeri, age 23, middle class, and Michele Capizzi, age 38, inserviente*
Marriage publications were on Sept 18th and 25th
The couple wasn’t asked for the consent of the mother of the groom and parents of the bride due to the result of the publications. The bride signed as Marietta even though her name is clearly Maria in the margin and body of the record.

*inserviente: I have seen two very different meanings for this occupation. The first one was that he was a janitor in a place like a school, hospital, or office. The second interpretation is very different and is that he was a lay person who served the priest during services, such as a deacon today would do.

Erudita -

You really are living up to your name.

Thank you so much for taking the time to uncover these records and to translate them for me. I really thought I was going to have trouble fining my Italian ancestors, but in fact they are quickly becoming some of the best documented relatives in my family tree.
