Confirm birth date

Post by real763 »

Hello, can you help confirm the birth date for my grandmother Elisabetta Guzzo? This birth record is a little different from some of the others I've seen. Is the date at the top her actual birth date or the day they appeared in front of the official? I can't find another date near the mother's name where I'm used to seeing them. But I may be missing it. Thanks in advance for your help.

Record #17

8th line down (including the blank line)

"del di dodici del corrente mese" --- on the 12th of the current month.

Yes, the date at the top is the date the child was presented to the official, which may also be the day of birth in some cases.
