Marriage certificate - Giacomo Pozzi

Post by asilinonte17 »

Hi all,

I'm having trouble reading the following marriage certificate and it may contain information vital to discovering who my 3rd great uncle was. I currently have no information at all about him and this is the first certificate that makes sense.

I think the certificate mentions the state of California multiple times as well as Sonoma, California. Giacomo's family moved to California and he may have stayed in Italy, I'm not exactly sure.

I attached the certificate as an attachment but if you don't want to access it that way here is a LINK: https://ibb.co/4FQsVKt

Thank you in advance, I really appreciate it.

Hope this helps...

Marriage #1
Giacomo Pozzi and Maria Albini
Dated 5 January 1908 at the town office in Gargano(?)

Appearing before the official was Giacomo Pozzi, son of deceased Angelo, to present a copy of the act of marriage that he requested to be transcribed exactly into the register of marriages...

Translating from English the act of Marriage (into Italian)---
State of California - Sonoma - Marriage License by the authority of the Justice of the Superior Court...the marriage of:
Giacomo Pozzi, born in Italy, age 30, residing in Bodega(?) of Sonoma, State of California with:
Maria Albini, born in Italy, age 22, residing Bodega(?), Sonoma, California -
That the participants are of age sufficient for contracting marriage....
The parties were without opposition to the marriage and were united on 5 February 1903 in Santa Rosa of the state.- That Pietro Albini residing in Sonoma, and Vittoria Albini residing in Valley Ford(?) of Sonoma, California, were present at the marriage and were witnesses.
The marriage appears to have been registered #93 in Sonoma County...
