i've a couple of questions:
-is the parish San Biagio? It identifies the place he lived as "nella casa propria sita Parocchia San Biagio" - which translates as "in the home located Parish San Biagio"
-i do not see any info about being married / his wife's name. am i not seeing this info?
After the parents' names you will see "marito (husband) di Caterina Cavosse(sp?)
i read his parents as Nicola Maria & Rosaria Milano. YES

thanks for your insights.

tessa,
now that you point it out, i see the work marito and the name.

i was wondering if the deaths records state cause of death? if not, might you know when that information was recorded.

recently when going through death records of 1867 discovered that within one week a whole family of my ancestors died (parents & 3 children). after some internet research i assumed it might be related to the 1867 cholera outbreak in italy

thanks again for your assistance.
