Wife?

Post by researching »

Hi guys,

I have this birth act for Vitantonio Camposeo. On the side it says he married someone, but I can't read all of it. I've got:

31 Dec 1885 in Valenzano Carmela Maria Caterina ?

Can you help me out?

Thanks
Julie

Here is the marriage act in Valenzano in December 1885 (#31)

The bride's surname is Mele.

hey guys,

from this marriage act that Tessa provided, can you make out the mother's (Rosa) last name?
and the town where Carmela was born? Is it Bari?

Thanks
Julie

Sorry that I forgot to post the link. I am having trouble with posting. I posted this more than once, but it didn't show up. I guess, in the end, I forgot to repost the link. :(

The mother's name is Rosa Cornacchia. The town of Carmela's birth is Bari delle Puglie, which was the official full name of the town of Bari from 1863 until 1931 when it went back to just Bari.
