Marriage act n° 2.
Date February 8th, 1868 in Santa Cristina Gela.
Marriage act between groom Mercurio Mandalà, son of the deceased Salvatore and the living Rosaria Criscione overage, born and living in Santa Cristina Gela, and bride Ignazia Barbata, daughter of the living Rosario and of the deceased Rosalia Cuccerrè, underage, born and living in Santa Cristina Gela.

This is not the Marriage Act. It is the Marriage Pubblication. The actual Marriage Act,
is here: Marriage Act No 2: Mercurio Mandala and Ignazia Barbata: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903 ... ng=en&i=75

They married on 30 March 1868.
