Birth No 127: Leondina Bocella
Castelfranci: 27 September 1898, 11.20 am

Before the official, in the town of Castelfranci, appeared Felice Antonio Bocella, 33 yo, a contadino (peasant farmer), living in Castelfranci, who reported that at 5.20 am, yesterday (26 September 1898), in the house in Contrada Monti, no number stated, from Rosa Tecce, his wife, a contadina, living with him, was born a baby girl who he presented to the official, and named the baby Leondina.

Witnesses to the presentation of the baby and declaration of birth:
Luigi Ricciardi?, 60, contadino, and Luigi Moschella?, 70, contadino both residing in this town.

Thank you so much for your help! It is so difficult researching my Italian side and not speaking/reading Italian, so this forum is amazing!

Grazie! (I know one word...)

Erudita

or Mantella?

Erudita and Livio: When I first looked at the record I read Manhella, which doesn't seem to exist. Now that Livio's mentioned it, I think that it possibly is Mantella. Still not sure though.

Angela and Livio
I originally was considering Mantella, as I looked through a lot of records and saw that the letter t was formed in other surnames as in this record. I couldn't find evidence of that surname existing in Avellino Province though, whereas Manzella does exist there. That's why I suggested Manzella instead.

I also was unable to find Mantella, Erudita. Oh well, we tried.....
