It appears to be the surname SAIA (found throughout Italy)

What is the comune?

Tessa,
It is Ariano Irpino. What I don't understand is that it looks like a quotation mark - no other record has this double "dot" over the letter i. i was wondering if it is an accent mark or if the name is spelled sai apostrophe a.

It is an accent mark. The surname is pronounced with a stress on th "i".
Happy New Year!
