Giovanna's surname is Giarrusso, which is found in the town.

Also once again we see reference to Bideni (Vizzini) where the groom was from. The bride was from Sammichele.

Sorry to hear you've now hit a brick wall. I believe you know I meant to type Grammichele in my post above.

I'm not sure about what precedes his title of Don. I believe that the abbreviation Baro is for Baron, but I don't know what precedes that in both the margin, and in the body, of the record. He was about 53 years old. His wife, Donna Rosa Mancuso, had predeceased him. He had received the sacraments of confession/penance, the Holy Eucharist/Communion, and Extreme Unction/Last Rites. The names of the priests who had administered the sacraments is also given. He was buried in the church of S. Francesco. I believe "minorum observatim" refers to a specific area, but I don't know what it means.
