Groom: Giacomo, son of deceased ??? and Giovanna Costa
Bride: Vincenza, daughter of deceased Pasquale and and Filippa Renda

I can't tell where they are from, Monreale or some other town...

My guess is "Masi" = "Tommaso".
Their town of origin is not mentioned.

Thank you Pippo! It's really unfortunate that these older records often omit the town of origin, which makes it very difficult to trace some lines.

And I think you're right because here is the death of "Thomasi Costa", and his father was Giacomo. The Giacomo Costa whose marriage I posted here was probably the oldest son of Tommaso Costa, and thus named for his paternal grandfather.
