Carlo GIANNOTTA - Birth Record, Baptism, Index Translation

[OrangeBlossom44]

Hello, everyone. I would appreciate translation help for the combined Birth Record/Baptism Record for my second great grandfather, Carlo GIANNOTTA. Also, I hope that you would also translate the index listing for him. On the index, I see that Carlo's father is Giuseppe GIANNOTTA, but I am unable to see the name of his mother clearly. It looks like Girolama RUGGIERO. The index says that Carlo was born on 18 March 1827. Thank you very much for your help!

Thank you so much, Angela! I wish that I could translate these earlier records with the ease that you do. Were you born in Italy? I am beyond happy finding more of my second and third great grandparents. Wish I knew more about the towns they lived in at the time and the lives they led. The discovery of the antenati for Faicchio, many of which go back to the very early 1800s, has made it possible for me to find the records for a number of other family members. A beautiful Christmas gift! Thank you again!

You are very welcome, Claire. I'm so pleased that those Faicchio records are on line for you. You've certainly got some fantastic records there. Allegati/Processetti starting 1811-1942 is impressive!!! (Unless my eyes deceive me.) They'll be really helpful for you when you reach road blocks.

No, I wasn't born in Italy. I hope to go there some time soon. The majority of my relatives live there. The street I grew up in was like "Little Italy" with lots of Italian immigrants cooking wonderful Italian food and speaking dialect. Italian was seldom spoken, so in many ways it has been new for me.

I hope you enjoy looking through those records and that it will be fruitful for you. Have a wonderful Christmas.
