Hi Gary

I wasn't able to blow up the images you have posted here and was unable to view the record at Family Search. However, these earlier records can also be found here:

Hi Angela, thank you so very very much once again, and thank you for the link to the record in the Italian Archives. This site lets us save a copy of the record which the Family Search site blocked.

Thanks again,
Gary

Thank you for confirming the name of the church mmogno. I was reading Santa Maria Cataro but couldn't find this church in Catanzaro and was wondering whether there was just an error in the record so that's why I left it blank.

Grazie, Angela

"Inserita nel complesso monastico dei frati carmelitani, cosiddetti "calzati", la Chiesa del Carmine, che attualmente si presenta con la facciata di travertino, venne edificata nel 1600 e subì degli interventi anche nel secolo seguente. Attorno al 1800 l'ordine monastico venne soppresso e, all'interno della chiesa, passata al clero secolare, trovarono ricovero le opere dell'antichissima Chiesa di Santa Maria di Cataro, danneggiata dal sisma del 1783, in particolare la Madonna policroma che oggi occupa l'altare di destra."
