Birth Record Translation for Filomena LaCapra

Post by nlacapra »

Hi Everyone,

I could really use someone’s help translating the following document in as much detail as possible.

I believe this to be my great-grandfathers sisters’ birth record from 1894. I found this from the Potenza, Basilicata, Italy, Civil Registration Records, 1861-1938.

I also cleaned up the images the best I could which I think will help with translating.

I appreciate the help and so does my family

Thank you!

Birth No 4: Filomena La Capra
Vaglio Basilicata: 3 January 1894

Nicola La Capra, 47, contadina (peasant farmer), living this town, reported that at 5.30 pm yesterday (2 January 1894), in a house in Strada Casale, No 6, from Antonia Mocciola, contadina, his legitimate wife living with him, was born a baby girl who he presented and gave the name Filomena.

Witnesses:
Rocco Avigliano, 44, and Matteo Danzi, 31, both contadini (peasant farmers).
