I'm having trouble discerning names from this marriage document for my ancestors Arsenio Amabile and Maddalena Episcopo. I know that Arsenio's father is Antonio and Maddalena's father is Giuseppe, but am having trouble finding/reading the mother's names, or any grandparent's names. Thank you!

In looking over the document again this morning, I believe Antonia's surname is Cairo and not Caino.

I would agree with you. There are passenger list entries coming into the US with individuals named Antonia Cairo from Sant'Arsenio.erudita74 wrote: 29 Aug 2018, 13:19 In looking over the document again this morning, I believe Antonia's surname is Cairo and not Caino.

There are also related records under the Italian Genealogy section of the forum, and the spelling seems clearer in those records.
