Hi, please help us read a Death record from Geraci Siculo. The online record is here.
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903 ... cc=1947613
It is the 1880 Death Record for Anna Valenza #41 - 26 April 1880. She is the daughter of Placido Valenza and Maria Alesso.
I've attached a copy of the record.
Thanks

#41
Dated 27 April 1880 at the town office in Geraci Siculo
Appearing were Nicolo Castello, 50, laborer residing in Geraci Siculo; and Antonino Vazzarra(?), 69, farmer residing in Geraci Siculo, to declare that at 8 PM yesterday (the 26th) at the house in Vico Bocceria(?) died Anna Valenza, age 70, housewife residing and born in Geraci Siculo to deceased Placido and to deceased Maria Alesso; she was the widow of Antonino Zangara(?).
Witnesses to the record were Gioachino Silvestri, 75, citizen; and Giuseppe Micheli, 40, citizen, both residing in this town.
The witnesses signed with the official as the others were illiterate.
NOTE: the side notation has nothing to do with this death. It is the officials certification of the records from January through all of April 1880.

In case you are interested, Anna Valenza died of consunzione - consumption.
The address looks like: Rua Bocceria but I can't see it anywhere.
