I could use some help on determining the father's first name and the mother's surname.
Is the father's name Olinto/Olindo?--never seen that first name. Check signatures on bottom
Is the mother's surname Capocefalo?
Thanks,
Biff

The Father's name is definitely Olindo and I'm fairly sure that the mother's surname is Capocefalo.
Researching Gibellina, Sicily surnames Bivona, Bonafede, Zummo, Ponzio, Bevinetto, Beninati, Fontana, Cipolla, Bruno, Manfrè, Lanfranca, and Navarra

Father's name is interesting. One I haven't seen before. The document writer clearly uses the same 'd' as is used in sindaco & contadina but the signature sure likes like a 't' to me.
this is the transcribed version
Name Giulia Margherita Ernestina Cicchese
Event Type Birth
Event Date 10 Mar 1880
Event Place Ferrazzano, Campobasso, Italy
Gender Female
Father's Name Olindo Cicchese
Mother's Name Maria Capoufalo
Entry Number 34
"Italia, Campobasso, Stato Civile (Archivio di Stato), 1809-1918," database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KDGG-BF6 : 13 March 2018), Maria Capoufalo in entry for Giulia Margherita Ernestina Cicchese, 10 Mar 1880; citing Birth, Ferrazzano, Campobasso, Italy, Archivio di Stato di Campobasso (Campobasso State Archives), Italy; FHL microfilm {record.getField('FILM_NUMBER')}.
That spelling produces very few hits on searches, while Capocefalo has MANY hits includes a large immigrant population with a heavy center in New York.
