Unh Latin 1879 marriage supplement

I’m interested in the last part at the bottom of this Foti birth act, “Dominicus Rombes obt Joanna Miceli”
Just want to confirm my assumption that this is Latin for Domenico fu Giovanni.

Hello!
"Patrinus fuit D. Dominico Rombes. Obx Joanna Miceli"
"Godfather was Don Domenico Rombes. Midwife was Giovanna Miceli."

Darn. Google told me it meant dead. But that’s why I checked! Thanks.

"obiit" would mean "he died"
"obx" stands for "obstetrix"
