Rosario/Rosaria Li Causi Birth Record 1838

Post by ItalianbellaSA »

Hello Everyone:

I found this birth record, however, I do not know if it is referring to male or female (Rosario or Rosaria). Here is the link:

http://dl.antenati.san.beniculturali.it ... ewsIndex=0

Also, it states that the birth took place "quartiere di San Nico". Is this the name of a town? I noticed on a sibling the address was "Comune quartiere di Sant'Antonio". The record is from the town of Borgetto.

Thank you in advance for any assistance.

Thank you, Tessa. I have another question that is puzzling me. My cousin's surname is Li Calsi. However, in searching back to the records of Borgetto, I see that the name started as Li Causi and then on a few records it changed to Li Calsi. There was a side note for a birth record of Biaggio Li Calsi to correct the name to Li Causi. I am not sure what to think of this and how do I name the line in my family tree?

The correct name is Li Causi. You can make a notation of the evolution of the spelling.
