Eusachio Salce, 1811 Marriage, Tocco

[JOHN08]

On the 19th of March 1811, before the civil-records official [in Tocco] appeared Eusachio Salce, son of deceased Venanzo, also son of Irene Sticca.

Also appeared Domenica Santilli, daughter of Bernardo and Agata Ciampa, both living in Tocco.

The first and second marriage banns were posted on the 3rd of March and the 10th of March 1811.

They were married on the 19th of March 1811.

This civil marriage record does not have any notation of the marriage at the church in Tocco ; before unification of Italy, about 1860, I thought it was required to have the name of the church noted on the marriage civil record. Am I wrong?

These earlier Napoleonico records don't have any notation that I have seen. I'm not sure when that started.

Angela,

I had a hard time reading Eusachio's father's given name, so I found the marriage index record (see the posted image at the bottom) for this marriage, which has "Venanzo" and "Irene".

I have info about the required content of civil marriage records (source: familysearch.org): "Marriage date; names, ages, and occupations of bride and groom; birthplace if other than town where the marriage took place; names, ages, and occupations of parents; whether parents are living; and date of church marriage, if marriage took place prior to 1865."

This may have been required, but was not done, in most cases, in the early records you as noted.

Thank you for your input!

Hi John, I see you are on line. I've just got in and was checking up on the given name Venanzo, and you are correct, it is a given name

Thanks for the info about Civil Marriage Records. I'll have a re-read to refresh my memory.
