Filippo Sampieri Death Record

[sandyleanza]

Hello Freinds,

Can I have a translation of the death record of Filippo Sampieri? I really struggle with the handwritten ones.

Happy to help!

#9 - dated 27 September 1919 at 12:40 PM at the town office in Melilli
Before the official ...appeared Attilio D'Amico, son of deceased Salvatore, age 30, clerk residing in Melilli, and presented a copy of an act of death, which was requested to be copied exactly into the register of death of this town.... transcription follows:
State of Connecticut, City of Ansonia, Office of the Civil Records and statistics of death.
Name and surname: Filippo Sampieri - Place of death: Antsonia Ct - Date of death: 19 October 1918 - Date of birth: 1888. He was age 30. Color: while - Occupation: laborer - He was married - place of birth: Italy - Name of father: Giuseppe - Place of birth of father: Italy - Name of mother: Brigida E'Elia - Place of birth of mother: Italy - Place of burial: Cemetery of S. Pietro - The doctor wrote a certificate of death for Signor Filippo Sampieri on 19 October 1918, and the cause of death was: Influenza - contributing to Pulmonitis that lasted 20 days. Doctor was M V. Parlato (?) - of Derby, Ct.
This copy was certified on 20 October 1918, as the official certificate of death by Teodora Mauville, State of Connecticut, County of New Haven.
The next part talks about the record's transcription from English, and the authentication of the record by the Minister of Foreign Affairs on 12 June 1919. Then it was inserted into the allegati of the register. Witnesses to this: Salvatore Di Mauro, 37, clerk; and Nicolo' Abramo, 52, clerk.

Not as uncommon as you would imagine.
Many were here to work and return to Italy. More than likely still an Italian citizen.
Many families, though residing in USA, would send the birth certificates of their children born in USA back to their Comune/town to be recorded.
