I believe the abbreviation in the document after the word for Mother Church is for the town of Bisacquino in Palermo Province. Where did you get this document from?

It was an Ancestry.com hint.

Just got another hint with that same document saying that the marriage took place on March 3, 1851 (you have March 4, 1851). The original hint was for the wrong Leonardo Di Giorgio (3 of them are on the Tree).

March 4th is correct. Look at the date of the record above it. The 3rd is for the top record on the page. Also the parish is San Giovanni Battista..Town name I gave you is correct. The records are on familysearch. Just search town name in the catalog to access the records.
