Hi I received the following birth document for my great grandmother Filomena Scala. She was born in Sicignano in April 1868. I know from her death certificate that her parents were Anna Maria Germano and Alfonzo Scala. I also know that she married my great grandfather on October 18, 1890.
However I would be interested in any additional details this birth certificate has -- ie where were her parents born and what are their ages? I realize that this is really hard to read but would appreciate any help anyone can give.
Many thanks!
Terri

Did you get my information on the family's records at Ellis Island? That gives Filomena's mother's age.
