Re: Two Church Documents Needing Translation
Livio, on the Giovanni baptism, the person from Italy who originally sent me the record only did a partial translation in Italian which is why I put it for translation here. He said the event occurred in March (which agreed with a civil record note on his death certificate) and you said October. I know handwriting can be an issue sometimes. Would you mind taking another look and re-verifying the month. The parents match to what was on the civil record.

I got confused and was looking only at the Ferrauto record for the same date as I was rushing to leave for a meeting. I see it now. Thank You.

Re: Two Church Documents Needing Translation
One other note - On Maria Concetta Grillo, my great grandmother, who I've been told went by her middle name, most documents show her middle name as Concetta; others as Carmela. The granddaughters named after her were named Carmela. I'm starting to think that she used Carmela because she liked it better than Concetta, but that Concetta is her real middle name. Do you any thoughts/insights as to her middle name?
