Help with death record

Post by RobininStl »

Can anyone shed some light on what the "figl: del ospedale grande di Palo fig: [not sure of word, but looks like alouius) della GioBatta & Benedetta..." The o on "Palo" is superscript, so I'm wonder if this is an abbreviation for Palermo. I believe "ospedale grande" is big hospital, so I'm wondering if this means he was adopted by Giovanni Battista and Benedetta. Any help is greatly appreciated.

The record is from Monreale, Palermo, Sicily. I'm attaching the record, but here's the link for it as well: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903 ... cc=2046915

Thank you!
