Re: Help translating Italian Birth Registration for Foundling Child

Thank you! I ran this through Google Translator, and it was very helpful.

I'm afraid I have more questions, though. :)

I am unclear on the role of Petronilla Manzo--seems she was the midwife, yes? Did she simply drop the baby off at the wheel? Or was she also the guardian, in effect?

Help translating Italian Birth Registration for Foundling Child

Hi there,

Wondering if someone could help tease out some of the information on this record (I believe it is my great, great grandmother). Notably, where the child was found (in a "wheel," but is there anything more specific about which home/church it was in?) The condition of the baby or remarks ...
