Translation Please

Post by tarheel56 »

I need a translation for Johanna Maria Meinello Birth Record, 3rd down on the left page. I also need the locations of each parent if stated in the record. Thanks!

Here's some of what I can decipher. The xxx indicate a word I can't decipher:

Giovanna Maria Meinello, daughter of Francesco Antonio and Giovanna Maria Muzza, spouses Meijnello, of Castrimontis xxx Fellecti (I can't find where this location is), born Aug 5, 1773. Godparents were Pietro Constantino, son of deceased Carlo from xxx Riparoli*, and Petronilla, the daughter of deceased Stefano Sbodio of this town.

*inhabitants of a town called Ripa Teatina in Chieti Province were/are called riparoli, but I can't say that this is the town referenced in the record

I also found this, but can't say if this is the location for the parents in the record:

It may be the town of Monte Castello-there is a "you tube" video under the title Montis Castri

Hello!
A few km north of Feletto there are Castellamonte and Rivarolo Canavese
so" loci Castrimontis incolae Fellecti could be "of the town of Castellamonte living in Feletto"
the words before Riparoli look like "ex finibus" an elaborate form of "from"
Ciao
