Help With Birth Record - Vito Santo De Filippis

Post by ncolonna »

Hi,

I've been looking for the birth record of my second great-grandfather and I believe I found it, hoping someone might be able to help translate so I can confirm if it is in fact him.

Here's what I know...

Vito Santo De Filippis
Born: Approximately 1866 in Rutigliano, Puglia

Married to Domenica Lucente
Children: Giovanni, Carmela & Giovanna De Filippis

I believe it's record 67 in the link below.

This child was born 30 March 1864 to Giangrazio Defilippis, 56, farmer, Son of deceased Nicola; and to Laura Orlando, 46, his wife. Child was named Vito Sante.
He was baptized the same day.

Thanks! By any chance does the annotations on the side of the page reference his wifes name? Hoping to use that to confirm if it’s in fact him.

Thanks T.!

I've been using the information you've all provided and believe I found the death record Vito Santo's father (Giangrazo Defilippis), the issue is that I found multiple records that could be him. Any chance you can assist me with a translation so I can try to determine which is correct? Can you let me know how you verified so I can try to figure it out on my own in the future? Thanks again, I really appreciate it!

Record 155 - I believe this is the one I'm looking for as it references a Vito Santo.http://dl.antenati.san.beniculturali.it ... wsIndex=0

Record 155 - I believe this is the one I'm looking for as it references a Vito Santo. This one may be him. Vito Sante is age 22 (in 1886 the date of the record). Unfortunately we only have the name of the second wife - not Vito Sante's mother. You will need to find the second marriage to verify.http://dl.antenati.san.beniculturali.it ... wsIndex=0

Record 63 Not him - This person is unmarried

Record 77Not him - this person is 2 days old.

Record 192 Not him - this person is 9 months old.
