Good attempt, Biff. You have the date and infant's name correct. Francesco Ignazio Mistretta was the son of Francesco and Giuseppa Mistretta. They were a married couple in this town. The godfather was Nunzio Impellizeri (currently the surname is spelled with two z's). He was the son of Filippo and Antonia, a married couple of the town and Mother Church. The godmother was Giuseppa Cusumano, the wife of Biagio, and daughter off deceased Pietro and Vincenza Auguanno (currently this surname is spelled as Aguanno). They were also of this town and Mother Church.

BTW, Diane, I don't think you saw this other link-a brother and sister marrying a brother and sister
