D'Avino, Marciano Vito Antonio

Post by dmurphy1940 »

Birth 75. This is what I have been able to translate from this record, and need help.

He was born in Frigento to Carmela Di Leo. His father is Angelo Michele D'Avino. Address is Contrada Roseto, #27. :?

on the line above the one containing "Contrada Roseto" you can read: ..."del dì quattordici del corrente mese" = "of day forteen of current month".

Marciano Vito Antonio was born 1902, June 14th. The birth was recorded on the 15th (this is on the very first line).

You're doing a good job! Brava!

I've got a long way to go, but thanks, Livio!

Why is the father's name in a different place than it usually is?

The birth was announced by the midwife Mariangela Micena and the reason is explained in the handwritten paragraph.
"The declarant (the midwife) assisted to the birth because of her profession and announced it in lieu of the father because the father was emigrated to America"

That's what I was assuming but could not find emigration to America. I will have to look closer!

You are reading it correct, and maybe this is what the clerk heard, but I bet it was supposed to be Americhe...

Dolores, no, the age is not given. Usually if the declarant is the midwife, she does not know how old is the farther.

Wish that they would give the mother's ages also on these birth records.

Dolores, here is a 1901 marriage bann for Angelo and Carmela which I found last week but because I have been somewhat out of circulation have been unable to post.

1901 NO 10: ANGELO MICHELE D'AVINO AND CARMELA DI LEO IMAGE 354: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/T ... 1067099068

Angelo was aged 24 (estimated birth 1877), farmer, son of Paolo D'Avino and the late Maria Giovanniella??? Lucca???
Carmela was 25 (estimated birth 1878), farmer, daughter of Giovanni Di Leo and Maria Giuseppa Sauro.

Hi Dolores, here is Carmela's Birth record at No 56. She was born 20 (venti) April 1876, at 12.00 (dodici).
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/T ... ,348570602

Father: Giovanni di Leo, 38, contadino, living Frigento.
Mother: Maria Giuseppa Sauro, contadina, with whom he lived.
Address: 28 Contrada Cesine

So she was two years older than her husband who was born in 1878
