I'm looking for help deciphering the groom's given name, his father's given name (it appears to be Segesmondo?), his mother's maiden name and the bride's mother's given name.
Can anyone help me decipher these?
Thanks,
Steve

Re: Lo Truglio Marriage Record 1586
This is what I am seeing:
Grooms Given Name: Gerolamo (or Geronimo)
Father's given name: Agreed, looks like Segesmondo (usually spelt Sigismondo)
Mother's maiden name: Briguccia
Bride's mother's given name: Crisenzia/Cresenzia (Both given names exist. It looks like the third letter is an "i" because of the dot above it?)

Thanks Angela.
I found another document that shows the groom's father as Segimodo (with an E and an I, but without the second S). But, as I've seen before, the spelling often changes from time to time and from document to document.

Very happy to help. Yes, changes in spelling of names happened a lot, for a number of reasons. It's so frustrating, if you like everything to be "perfect" (like I do):-)
