Re: Translation help - Paolo Conti birth
Thank you, Paola. You said this is "just the basic facts" - can you tell me what else is contained in this record? For instance, I see some other names in there. Who are they and what significance did they have?
I very much appreciate your help!

The names at the bottom of the record are the witnesses to the recording of the birth at the town hall. Usually they are no relation to the declarant (in this case the father), and just happen to be available. I can see that both appear to work at the municipal offices.
The name at the top, and the signature at the end, is that of Daniele Taddei, the mayor.
