Calabro/Failla Marriage Record

Post by bnic84 »

Could you please assist me in translating this marriage record? My records show that Concetta and Agata were married in Connecticut on 11/3/1926, but Angela found a copy of the following marriage record which was sent back from the US in 1931: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903 ... at=2172492
