Once again, I am having difficulty with the Latin marriage record of ancestors, Vincenzo La Porta and Angela Montalto, married in Prizzi, Sicily, in 1766. A number of questions:
What does the Mag. abbreviation before Vincenzo's name mean?
It looks to me like Vincenzo is from Palazzo Adriano, yes?
Vincenzo's father's name is Francesco, but I am unsure of his mother's name. It looks like Veneranda? Is that correct? I've never heard that name before.
I assume Angela Montalto is from Prizzi, yes?
I don't see ages for Vincenzo and Angela -- are they there?
Any other pertinent information I am missing?
Thank you SO MUCH for answers to any of these questions!

So sorry! I thought I was making it easier by cutting out all the other records on the page, but obviously I do not know how to do it correctly. Therefore, I will attach the entire page, but please know that I am only interested in the marriage document for Vincenzo La Porta and Angela Montalto, which begins at the bottom of the first column and carries over onto the top of the second column.
Thank you so much to anyone who can answer any of the questions below.
