Translating an Italian death certificate

Hi everyone! I just found what I firmly believe is the death certificate of my Italian 2nd Great Grandfather. I would appreciate if someone could take the time to translate this for me.

My 2nd GG's record is Number 5, the top one in this document.

Re: Translating my Great Grandfather's WWI Record

Also, as a side question. Where would I be able to research in depth about his regiment during the war? I've been stuck trying to find websites that give detail on what each regiment in the war was doing. I'd like to know as much as a can

Re: ordering documents from Italy

That's that I thought they wrote, thank you for confirming. Am I right in reading that the total is 5.20 euros that they want? Is there a different between sending an international cheque or just the cash?

Re: ordering documents from Italy

I'll double check with them just to be sure, but it's my understanding that in the envelope I sent them I add in the euro bills? Nothing else like copy of ID or anything?

Re: 1920s marriage certificate translation help

Thank you, Tessa. Sent out an email to the archives yesterday. Got a response back today saying in order to get photocopies of the documents that I'd need to pay, but at least they seemed to find a match between a document they have and the information I sent to them.

Re: 1920s marriage certificate translation help

Hey Tessa, one quick question that's not related to the marriage record. I'm trying to find Alessandro's military record during WW1 and I have a bit of info on it like when he enlisted, when he was honorably discharged, and his serial number in the army. Would contacting Avellino be the best place ...
