Parent's ages and names of their parents

Post by erik.hammer »

Hey all!

I'm am trying to see if the parents listed on a birth certificate are the same people listed on a marriage record by matching up their ages/birth years.

The first link is the birth record (bottom right): the names of the parents are Antonio Marra and Teresa di Vito. I think they are thirty something?

The second link is a marriage between two people of the same names however I would just like to confirm the information. (Right page)

If you are able to translate other parts of the two records that may be significant or interesting to know, it would be much appreciated.
Stay safe, and thank you!! :)
