Last one, I promise!

Leonardo Traficante's birth record. Having trouble reading what is written after his mother's name. Looks like D' Chiaranta???

Close. It says "d'chiarante" (dichiarante = "the registrant" so the declarer or reporter of the birth who in this case was the father)

So it is saying that ".... born from his (the registrant's) wife Teresa Cappiello, of twenty-eight years, living with her husband and registrant of years as above ...." etc Because the registrant is also the father all his details get repeated in this section.
