You guys have made me cry like 40 times. In a world of disconnect you guys have helped me find out more than I ever could of dreamed. I'm really humbled by everyone's help, it's really incredible. Thank you so very much. I believe we have pieces that make a lot of sense based on what we all heard and thought. Amazing we wait to ask these questions till after they are gone.

So much love to you all. Once I have a complete profile I'll share back, I'm really just so grateful. :D

Glad to help!

the marriage act, in the last part ... it is wrote that bride and groom presented the certificate of performed marriage banns (marriage banns: 5 and 12 oct 1884) and that the groom parents given the consent for marriage (because Francesco Antonio was a minor...)
the act was signed just by witnesses and clerk because the spouses was illitterates...

the other handwriting is for use office( marriage registry closure)
