Assistance translating birth record

Post by jamesamdadamo »

I'm attempting to discover the parents of my 2nd Great-Grandparents who lived in Ripacandida. While I have located the birth records of my 2nd Great-Grandparents I've only been able to translate a portion of those documents using Google translate with the assistance of my mother who knows a little Italian. Especially difficult for me is the cursive. Any help would be appreciated. We are planning a trip to Potenza and would love to be able to connect with some family.

My 2nd great-grandfather Donato D'Adamo (page 147).
In addition to the birth record there are several loose papers inserted into the record (pages 145, 146) and I'm not sure if those are related to my ancestors or someone else on that page. Possibly a record of baptism or correction to a marriage.

This is my 2nd Great-grandmother Maddalena Lepore (page 217)

Thank you so much for any help you can provide.

I've just translated these records for you on this related thread: https://www.italiangenealogy.com/forum/language/41532

I've had a quick look at those documents. They don't relate. Will take a closer look though just in case and come back if they do. Sorry it's taken a few days for someone to see your posts here. This happens sometimes with first posts, because they have to be checked by the moderators first, and then somehow get lost in the line of requests.
