I think it is Pasquale Joseph Chiarello.
This is a clue to finding their marriage and the Wifes name and and Husband and wife lineage, which is a dead end.

Like you, I'm seeing Paschalius as the first name which must be Pasquale in Italian.

This is a baptism record for a female not male. I'm reading the name Paschasia Josepha-/Pascasia Giuseppa. The origin of the name is Greek. Originally meaning Easter. In Italian we usually see Pasqua. Paschasia was a virgin martyr in France.

Thanks Erudita. I had a marriage document for her and wasn't sure. Should have posted that as well. I added it now, and in that one, they truncated it to Pasqua. I wasn't sure of the handwriting and that it was the same person.

Thanks to you. I am now.
