Hi,

Can anyone read this blurry and light record?

I think it is for Michele Bilancia born around 1854.

Names, dates, relationships, etc.

I believe that the surname of the bride's mother is Lucca, not Lucia...

Indeed it is! Here is her 1861 Birth Record. http://www.antenati.san.beniculturali.i ... ewsIndex=0

I have seen both surnames in the Province. Birth Record and index are clearer.
