Re: Need help with Marriage Documents

In 7. Giacomo's father's name = Celestiano ? ... I thought it might be Sebastiano ... But I'm sure your reading of Italian script is much better than mine.

Re: Grandfather's Oldest Brother's Birth Record

This is interesting because the Robioglio's are also relations on my grandmothers side.

Grandfather's Oldest Brother's Birth Record

Here is a completely hand written virth record that I'd like to have any and all family related information about. I'd also like to know who Pietro Robioglio is this document i.e. just a witness ? or is he serving in a more official capacity. The reason I'm asking is that my grandmother's mothers ...

Re: Help with Transcription and/or Translation

No problem ... Thanks for the clarification and second opinion ... It is wonderful to have a place like this frequented by people like you where we can post documents like this to get help. Some of the documents I have, I have looked at for quite awhile and gotten almost nowhere.

Re: Help with Transcription and/or Translation

Thanks ...

In regards to the marriage annotation ...

- I wouldn't think the marriage couldt have taken place on that date as my gradmother would have only been 7-8 ( b: 1891 ) ...
- It also could not have taken place in 1912 or beyond as they immigrated to the US in September of 1911 ...

While ...

Re: Help with Transcription and/or Translation

I can't say I'm surprised as I know there were family who were residents there way way back ... I have seen microfilm/fiche documents from Vercelli where apparently the copies of the more recent ones are stored i.e from about 1866 on which I guess coincides with the time of unification. Are there ...

Re: Help with Transcription and/or Translation

Yes ... Alessandrina Aragnetti ... My grandmother's maiden name ... In the community of Masserano ( Just down the road from Brusnengo and where my grandmother was born )

Is that what looks like "po" in po meridiane an abbreviation for post ? as in "after" noon ?

Thanks again ...

Re: Help with Transcription and/or Translation

Added above ... The original was too large to allow posting and for some reason it now seems to have posted the doc inline as opposed to a link to it.
