Having problems with the Italian language? Do you need help to translate or understand an old family document? There is always someone who can help you!
I have the marriage document from 1874 (#14) for Francesco Paolo Nigro and Maria Carmela Di Persia. It doesn't need to be a word for word translation; I'm trying to get the main information from this document.
Francesco Paolo Nigro, aged 35, son of Giuseppe and Angela Milano widower of Maria Giuseppa Ambruso (sp?)
Maria Carmela di Persia, aged 37, daughter of the deceased Giovanni and of Giuditta Gioxxxx, widow of Vincenxo Rana (?)
Witnesses
Luigi Romano, 48 son of the deceased Francesco
Giovanni Di Lorenzo 44 son of the deceased Giuseppe
Thank you so much! Is there any mention of any children they each had prior to this marriage? I'm trying to keep everyone in my family tree straight but they all have the same names!
Giuditta's surname is Gioscia (I know it looks like an o at the end of the name, but the surname in the town is spelled with an a at the end)

I often import the images into my Photo Impact Photo program and then make adjustments in contrast and brightness, but this time I just clicked on the image on the forum to enlarge it and had no problem reading it on my computer. I guess I've deciphered so many washed out documents over the years that this one just didn't seem that much of a problem to me.
Thanks for your compliment, T.

Nowadays, very few Italian actors are able to emerge on the world cinema scene. Until a few decades ago it was different, but we talk about the age of the young Cinecittà, where it was not unusual to meet world-famous directors who set their stories which became known all over the world in those stu...
