Hello,
I am a new member and look forward to exploring this website. I am hoping for assistance in translating this marriage entry from Roccapalumba. It seems to have 3 sections. This is new to me; I am more familiar with records from Germany. It is very long so I do not expect a complete translation. The entry is for my 2nd great-grandparents and I know nothing of them except their names. Any information regarding parents, dates, ages, occupation, residences (all the interesting genealogical data) is appreciated. Thank you for any possible help.

Thank you for your reply - it is very helpful! Can you tell me if the "birth acts" and "death acts" provide actual dates? Or is this just a generic kind of statement affirming someone's birth or death?
Thank you & regards,

The birth acts and death acts are civil registrations and contain the "actual" date and time and place of birth or death.EllenD wrote: 09 Jul 2019, 18:34 Thank you for your reply - it is very helpful!

The death act of the groom's father was provided to the official, but you will need to search for the Allegati (attachments file) for the marriage. The documents provided by the couple for their marriage are usually contained there.
Edit...
Here is the link to the Allegati. It contains the certificate of publication with no opposition, and the birth acts of both spouses. Unfortunately, it does not contain the death act of the groom's father.
