MY first baptism translation request Lucia Tamburello 1747

Post by mjr0627 »

I think this is the baptism of Lucia Tamburello
BUT I am not experienced in reading these baptism documents.

Would like to confirm and find out who her parents are.

I see the baptism date as 5 Feb 1747

You have the correct date of Feb 5, 1747

My understanding is that the infant was born this night at about 6 to Santo and Francesca Tamborello, a married couple in Bisacquino. The infant was in imminent danger so the midwife, Caterina Nicolosi, initially performed the baptism rite and named the infant Giovanna Anna Maria Lucia Tamborello. The infant was then rebaptized by the parish priest, Don Antonio Campisi, and it appears that the name he gave her was just Anna Maria Lucia. Even though Giovanna appears in the index, and in the margin of the record, it does not appear in the body of the record with the rest of the names imposed on the infant by the priest.
