Hi Everyone!
I found the marriage record of my 5xgreat grandparents, Lorenzo Caputo and Marta Pisani. So far this is what I was able to understand:
Marriage Date: Sept. 6, 1818
Groom: Lorenzo Caputo, Age 23, Fisherman, son of Maggione de Andrea Caputo, age 27, fisherman, and Chiara del Vescovo (sp?), age 43. Address: 16 Strada Catecombe, Molfetta
Bride: Marta ____? Pisani, Age 21, daughter of Maggione Michele Pisani, Age 50, fisherman, and Giovanna ______________?, Age 43. Address: 20 Strada Catecombe, Molfetta.
What does Maggione mean before the names of the fathers?
Here is the link:

Chiara del Vescovo is correct.
Marta's middle name is Maria and is clearer in the index, although it is abbreviated there; the groom's surname is incorrect in the index

figlio maggiore d Andrea-adult son of Andrea
figlia maggiore di Michele-adult daughter of Michele
Giovanna's surname is Mezzina, much clearer in the index
Marta's middle name is Maria and is clearer in the index, although it is abbreviated there; the groom's surname is incorrect in the index
