It's a death record for a 5-month old baby, Carmela Rizzo, daughter of Giovanni Rizzo. She died on 23 Sep 1885. I would guess that it is probably not that critical.

To all:

Can someone take a guess at the name of the mother? I see a "Maria" in the name. Thank you Carubia for your response, the date, the name of the child, the date of death, the name of the father are very important to me and help me in my research on the Rizzo family in SG.

It does look like "Maria" (but with the "i" and the "r" appearing to be a single letter), but then there is an "lla" (or "tta") after that. Perhaps Mariella or Marietta. The surname starts with a D.

Thank you again Carubia. I could not figure it out and I was confused with the "tta" ending. Having fresh eyes take a look is very helpful.
