October 26, 1879 at town hall in Ravello appeared Salvatore Mansi, age 24, laborer, domiciled in Ravello, who declared that at 6:30 a.m. on October 22, in the home on Via Tenaglia, from his union with Fermina di Stasio, an unmarried woman, a seamstress domiciled in Ravello, a male child was born who was presented to town officials and to whom was given the name of Giuseppe.
Witnesses were Pantaleone Sammarco, age 50, and Matteo Mansi, age 73, laborer, both residents of Ravello.
On the left side is says that on March 28, 1880 Salvatore Mansi and Fermina di Stasio were married, legitimizing the birth of Giuseppe.
Below that on the left it states that on November 18, 1899, Giuseppe married Maria Francesca Forte.

Surname is Manzi, not Mansi.
Side note: On 25 March 1880 Salvatore Manzi, son of deceased Bartolomeo, married Ferminia Di Stasio, and the couple legitimized Giuseppe as their son.

Re: Help translation needed
I agree on March 25. I had a typographical error. To me in the main body of the birth act it seems clear that the name is Fermina, not Ferminia. On the left side it is not quite as clear, but it still seems to me to be Fermina, and not Ferminia.liviomoreno wrote: 09 Nov 2020, 07:40 Surname is Manzi, not Mansi.

Are you sure it's Manzi and not Mansi? In the writing the the letter between the n and the i looks the same as the s in sei on the next line, then 5 lines down the s in presente, and 6 lines down the s in maschile. Currently the surname in the town appears as Mansi.

No apology needed. The handwriting on this one is irregular in several places and I struggled with it a bit.liviomoreno wrote: 09 Nov 2020, 16:24You are correct.
