Post by DebiHarbuck »

I could really use some help with these; especially the record from 1871. Oy. I have got to take some lessons...

Hey Tessa! And...yeah...that would probably help, huh? :oops:

I am interested in the Sausto records, so in the top one, #64 (Vincenzo). Middle, # 72 (Felice) and the bottom one, marriage of Vincenzo, #22.

LOL - I figured it out when I saw SAUSTO on each of the images!! :-)

Top image is a birth record but the beginning of it must be on the previous page. Not a problem, only the year is missing, but I'm assuming you know that already. :-)

#64
Vincenzo Sausto son of Francesco and of Rosa Felitti

The father is Francesco Sausto, son of deceased Francesco, age 28, peasant farmer, residing in Vietri
Child was born on June 28 at 5 AM to Rosa Felitti, daughter of deceased Vincenzo, age 22
Child was given the name Vincenzo Sausto.

The other names in the record seem to be witnesses that Francesco presented when he appeared at the town hall at 11 AM
Giovanni Frumiano(sp?) of dec. Antonio, age 54
Vito Zio(sp?) of deceased Nicola, age 51

Happy to help...

Yes, the two n's sometimes look like an "m" - and you can get bleary-eyed trying to decipher it :-)

Hi Debi
I found your posts online regarding the Sausto family. I was happy you found out so much information. I am the granddaughter of Cecilia Sausto. I'd like to talk to you about the research, etc.

Please reply.
