Post by molan »

Hi, please help us (Paula Musciotto) read a Marriage record from Geraci Siculo. The record is located here:
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903 ... cat=486172

Image 1310 of 3050.

It is the marriage of Antonio Musciotto & Maria Grazia Valenza from 1878 #5.

I've attached a copy of the record also.
Thanks
Gary

Marriage Pubblication No 5: Antonio Musciotto, single, son of Giuseppe; and Maria Grazia Valenza, daughter of Antonio
Geraci Siculo: 2 February 1878, 9.15 am

Groom: Antonio Musciotto, 27, pastore (shepherd), residing Geraci Siculo, son of Giuseppe (Musciotto), 61 yo, pastore, residing Geraci Siculo, and of the deceased Maria Suppa

Bride: Maria Grazia Valenza, unmarried, 24 yo, donna di casa (lady of the house – domestic), residing Geraci Siculo, daughter of Antonio (Valenza), 61 yo, pastore, residing Geraci Siculo, and of the deceased Maria Puccio.

Side Column: Banns were posted in this town on 3 February 1878, and on 10 February 1878.

This is the translation to the marriage banns. Mmogno has provided the link to the actual marriage. I'll look at it to see if there is anything more to be said.


Edit to Add:


Marriage No 5: Antonio Musciotto, son of Giuseppe; and Maria Grazia Valenza daughter of Antonio

Married on 27 February 1878, 4.14 pm, Geraci Siculo

There is more information contained in the marriage banns. They provide detail about the respective parents which the marriage doesn't contain. Great to have both records.

For future reference, the correct spelling of the groom's mother surname was Iuppa.
