Hi Everyone,
I could really use someone’s help translating the following document in as much detail as possible.
I believe this to be my great-grandfathers sisters’ birth record from 1894. I found this from the Potenza, Basilicata, Italy, Civil Registration Records, 1861-1938.
I also cleaned up the images the best I could which I think will help with translating.

I appreciate the help and so does my family
Thank you!
