Translation help please!! Italian birth records....

[jodilee]

I have several birth records that I zeroxed from a LDS film. I have had several people, including an elderly couple from Italy try to translate them for me with no luck. Any help would be greatly apprecaited. They seem to think the records might be in Latin or really old Italian. Approx 1850 & 1885

I can scan the sheets and send them...........thanks so much.......Jodi

Hi Jodilee

I think your idea of scanning them and uploading to the forum here is your best bet.

[jodilee]

Any body suggest a board where someone will actually just say "hey send that to me" !!! Files are 2 big and I'm not looking to spend 3 hours trying to figure it out when I'm so computer illiterate. I managed to scan and save them, all 4 are different sizes and 2 big to post........

These are the links to the images. I will try to read them in the next few hours.
Glad you were not able to downsize them

Jodi,
The handwriting is kind of awful and they are difficult to read, however they are marriage acts. I hope to be able to get back to you with all the names.

The document show the date of the marriage
Name and age of groom and bride, and name of their parents.
Name of the witnesses.

MArriage !!! You're kidding !! I've had them for about a year now, maybe two and I always thought they were baptismal records. I'm wondering now if I ordered the wrong films a few years back. Anyway, thanks so much for your gracious help. If I can do any New Jersey research for you, please ask....Jo

Jodilee, they are very hard to read (at least for me)! This is what I was able to see:

Livio,

Thanks so much for your help, there isn't enough info available for me to determine if these are related. The 1852 marriage was the ONE I was really hoping for and seems to be the most unreadable. Again thanks for your time.......Jodi

Jodilee,

The records are in Latin and possibly church rather than civil records.
For the 1852 document my best read on the couple:

Leander (Leandro) Cantoni for the groom--son of Domenico and Anna Maria Bruschi?
Magdalena (Maddalena) Belli for the bride

Biff

[liviomoreno]

Jodilee, as Biff mentioned, the records are in Latin and are Church records. Taking advantage of the hints from Biff now I read:

1852 Nov 23

Groom
Leander (Leandro) Cantoni 20y, son of Domenico and Anna Maria Bruschi?
Bride
Magdalena (Maddalena) Belli 19, daughter of Alojs (Luigi) and Maria Banti?

OOOOO cart wheels.................

I need to get that record translated......you are so awesome............thanks so very much...........

This just told me that my great grandfather had a brother..........OOOOO I'm so excited.......Blessings.........

Gotta get it translated.............

Thank You !!!!!

[jodilee]

Do you think it might be possible to host these images at sayyyyy.....auctiva or verizon, where it would be easier for others to look at them, I think then maybe the images could be seen better?????

[Biff83]

Jodilee,

I'm not sure but there are two other names on the marriage document. Possible witnesses? If so, I read them as:

Domenico Cantoni, son of Vincenti (Vincenzo), 20 years
Virgilio Capelli, son of Petri (Pietro), 55 years

Livio,

Can you check also?

Biff

[jodilee]

YES this is my family..........
I have in my files

Domenio Cantoni and Anna Maria Bruschi their
SON ERMENGILDO, wife EUROSI FERRARI
and his son Melchiorre, wife Eufrosina LEVATI
Melchiorre Immg. to USA w/5 children and had 4 more the last was my grand father

That is all I have, this record....gives me Ermengildos brother??? and possibly a father to Domenico?????
