translation help

Post by ray1955 »

Can anyone read this document I can read bits and pieces but afraid I might miss something I thought I saw a word like "army" and thought wait I need someone to really look at this.

Thanks.

Would appreciate a translation.

Giuseppe and Maddalena Spoto

Date of Marriage:7 DEc 1871 in Vallelunga
Groom: Giuseppe Macaluso 22yo born in Villafrate (?) livin in Vallelunga, son of deceased Salvatore and living Maria La Barbera
Bride: Maddalena Spoto, 18yo born and living in Vallelunga, daughter of deceased Loreto and of Rosa Piscitello

What you read "army" is "anni" with a fancy curl at the end

Just a footnote to Livio's :D translation...

Giuseppe was a coachman, and Maddalena was a weaver

I guess a coachman drove a coach you wouldn't or I wouldn't think there would be much call for that in respect to people paying you for a ride like a taxi driver. Basically horse and buggy to take folks from a - b…….

Could have been a driver for the transport of passengers, mail, etc.
