Meaning of transcription
This is on the back of a photo I have, a young woman. Can anyone explain what it is telling me.. I see her name, and apparently she is the child of Gaetano. But the date does not make sense. Is it a death date? It can't be a birth date, the woman looks to be in her late teens, early twenties. Please let me know what you think.

I read:
Teresina Sorrentino, daughter of Gaetano, died 13 February 1929, age 71 years.
Most likely it is a picture of her in her earlier years.

Agree. Likely a note to keep track of the portrayed person, written several years after the photo was taken.Tessa78 wrote: 23 Feb 2019, 01:52 I read:

Re: Meaning of transcription
this is the front of the picture. I think the her appearance looks like late 1890 or even early 1900. But she does look young in this pic.
