Having problems with the Italian language? Do you need help to translate or understand an old family document? There is always someone who can help you!
I am having a hard time trying to read/translate this because it is not written well...
The record 264 is the marriage record for my Uncel Andrea Mazza and his wife Biondina (Bionda) Ammirato
I think it is for December 16th, 1905
I am trying to figure out the parents of the couple... I think the brides father is Crescenzo Ammirato (deceased) and the grooms father is Leonardo Mazza (deceased), does it gives the mother' names?
That is a big help.... Thank you. It helps to clear up some info. I didnt find the publication any clearer... I am glad you could make it out. It is hard enough trying to decipher another language, but when the hand writing is really bad it makes it worse.

But who wants to be "typical" when you might be able to trace a lineage into the 1500s or even into the Middle Ages? Because success in this field requires practice and perseverance, as well as skills m...
