Help with handwriting in marriage record

Post by keo »

I don't need a complete translation, just help transcribing the handwriting. However, if you can translate, that is welcome as well.

I am most curious about finding out the husband's full name.

Any help is appreciated, thank you.

Marriage No 67: Enrico (written Enrigo) Olla' and Arcangela Ricia
Agira: 4 September 1881, 11.15 am

Before the official appeared:

Groom: Enrigo (Enrico) Olla', unmarried, 23, Sarto (tailor), born in Santo Stefano Camastri (Santo Stefano Camastra - Messina) , residing in Agira, son of Giuseppe (Olla') and Maria Pietra Antoci, both residing in Santo Stefano Camastri (Camastra)

Bride: Arcangela Ricia, unmarried, 18 yo, industriosa (manufacturer/trader), born in Agira, residing Agira, daughter of the deceased Gennaro, who resided in Agira when living, and of the living Maria Mezzo, residing Agira.

Witnesses:
Gaetano Calcerano, 23 yo and Giovanni Morina, 25 yo, both sulphur miners?

The marriage banns were posted on 21 and 28 August 1881.

The parents of the groom and mother of the bride gave their consent to marriage.

I believe his name is Enrico Olla' but in the record Enrico has been spelt Enrigo. Scroll down to the signatures and he has signed his name Enrico Olla'. Also refer to the index here where it is clearly Enrico: http://www.antenati.san.beniculturali.i ... ewsIndex=0

These records are actually online so if you have any further records just post the link to the image. It works out so much easier all round. eg. http://www.antenati.san.beniculturali.i ... ewsIndex=0
