Help with information on a birth record

Post by italian059 »

Would someone please help translate this record. Was Giuseppe born on December 31, 1887? Can you please tell me the names of his parents? I see where there is marriage information listed on the left hand side. I know he married Audenzia Calcagno but there are two different dates. I am not sure what that means. Also there is something written on the bottom on the left hand side. Can anyone understand what it says? Any information would be appreciated. Thanks so much.

I read it as born on the 30th and recorded on the 31st.

The marriage probably occurred in 1913 and was recorded in 1914.

Father was Francesco. Mother looks like Margarita?

I'd say he got married on Oct 18th, 1913.
I read mother's name is Margherita Mabito (?).
The notation on the bottom left is about the check of the register.
Giuseppe "Pippo" Moccaldi

I believe the surname is Rabito. It is a really badly formed letter "R". Compare the letter "R" in the indices for that year: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903 ... cat=393376

Here's the online record, which isn't really that much clearer, but I still believe the mother's name to be Margherita Rabito: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903 ... cat=393376
