Laura Siragusa was the daughter of Andrea and ? Siragusa (I can't read her mother's name).

Paolo, the son of ? I can't read his parents' names at all.

Paolo Danzello's father in the marriage record was deceased Giovanni.

Here are links to his baptism record and the baptism index. He was baptized Pietro Paolo, but the Pietro does not appear in the marriage record. Also his mother's name is not given in the baptism index or in the record.

Baptism index-Pietro Paolo Danzello, son of Giovanni.

Thank you Angela and Erudita!!!

I think that Jn may be a Latinized abbreviation for "Giovanna", because the abbreviation for "Giovanni" used in the same record looks very similar.

You're welcome, Ed. The earlier records are proving to be quite a challenge!
