leonardo la tenca e caterina pilaia

Post by lindamauer »

archdiocese agrigento
sambuca
oct 27 1647
folio 71 versa
record# 38
image 143
record left side top

the index seems to read La Tenca does that seem viable?
Please confirm and translate
groom's parents antonino with mother Francesca no surname
bride's parents Antonino with mother or (previous marriage for whom?) to Margherita but i see et Giovanna is that mother or previous marriage for whom?
Thanks
these older records are difficult to say the least

@mmogno
the handwriting is so varied. another tree has it as Ienca

in one record of this family in index
i saw it clearly was written Tencha
does that change the possibility from La Jenca/Genca

What is a common surname in Sambuca?
