Appearing was Giovanni Gippetto, 24 yo, bracciale (day labourer) living in Marineo, in the neighbourhood of Sant’Antonio di Padova. He presented a baby boy who he reported was born from Cira La Motta, his wife, 22 yo, living in this same town and neighbourhood. The baby was born on 14 February 1821 at 8 pm in his parents own home and given the name Silvestre. http://dl.antenati.san.beniculturali.it ... ewsIndex=0
I'm understanding the right side of the page to be the baptism details. Baptised on 14 February 1821 in the Parish of Marineo.

I see a shown on the first page on right that shows Feb 1810 ventuno for some reason ???
Is that a mistake ?

Yes, I believe it is an error. They possibily intended to write "1800 ventuno". I've seen this in records before. I'm sure someone will chime in if they think differently.
Ever since I was a little boy, my dad would show me my great grandfather's card, and tell me that he was a count in Italy. I was always intrigued by that, but never really thought about asking my grandmother questions, or anyone else for that matter. About ten years ago, as more and more information...
