First name help

[bvbellomo]

Attached is the birth record of my great-grandmother from Mirabello Sannitico. Her mother's maiden name is di Giglio, but I can't figure out her first name (Mariaurmierya or something like that)? Also knowing her father's age would help (I think it is forty- something)

I'm giving up trying to make this look nice on this forum. It has a small size limit, and then it crops the image further, and the preview and actually post crop differently.

Here is the link to the image:

The mother's given name could be Mariavincenza and the father's age 46...

Wow.

Mariavincenza fits nicely if they made a 'z' with a tail like that. I kept thinking 'y', 'g', 'j', 'q' etc. Would they have written Mariavincenza and not MariaVincenza?

For the fathers age, would it be written quarantasei? I don't see how you get 'S' 'E' for the last 2 letters. But I do agree that not much else fits.

Thanks!

It is Mariavincenza with a small "v". In Italian we do not have capital letters in the middle of a word.
I know it is difficult to read quarantasei, but the last letter seems to be an "i".

Hi Livio!

Great read on the mother's first name, but I'm seeing the father's age as 49
