Three children, from one family, die in matter of days--help translate

Post by misschristi16 »

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/T ... 1,54288701

I stumbled across a death record for Mariano Pinto (#65), Enrico Pinto (#66) and on the next page is a record for Margherita Pinto (record #70).
Each record has the same parents listed--Cannot make out the names--but, I believe it is **stefano and Rosina Sinelli?

Any help in translation would be appreciated, and if it has a reason why they all died, that would be nice also.

Thanks in advance

Mariano Garibaldi, Enrico and Margherita were all children of Gianstefano and Rosina Dinelli, "gentiluomo" and "gentildonna" (I'd say "upper class"). They died in the house of their parents, situated in "strada Castello" (Castle street).
Mariano Garibaldi died Oct 17th at 6 am age 11, Enrico same day at 5pm age 5, and Margherita Nov 2nd age 10.
Notice that "Garibaldi" was a name given to children in the XIX century, in honour of Giuseppe Garibaldi, the most famous Italian patriot.

Must have been some disease, I presume. Odd. Thanks!

Since the parents didn't also die it was probably some disease affecting children, like Measles, diphtheria, whooping cough. Too bad those people who are against vaccination don't see these kind of tragedies that occurred in the past.
