Confirm Translation of Death Record

[mdyer]

I've located a death record for a 4th great-grandmother Vincenza Mobilio widow of Rocco Vincenzo La Rocca. I'm looking for help to confirm whether my translation was accurate.

What I saw:
Vincenza Mobilio died May 17, 1874 at age of 90 years old.
Born in comune of Spinoso
Father was Carlo Mobilio and mother was Maria Teresa Lucrezia - both deceased.

Did I get that right?

Thank you!

Her record is on the left hand side mid-way down the page.

You certainly did!

FYI - the first declarant appears to be her son. He was Pancrazio La Rocca, 36, son of deceased Rocco Vincenzo La Rocca.

Thanks Tessa! Pancrazio would be my 3rd great-grandfather.

I'm skeptical about her being 90 years old since she would have been about 55 when Pancrazio was born in 1839. I'm wondering if they just approximated her age to the nearest decade, figuring old is old?

Having a child at 55 was not unheard of...but I agree that they probably approximated her age at death

Thank you, Tessa. Appreciate your help!

I need some help confirming the age of the deceased on another death record. This record is for Antonia Maria Ruoti (left side). Is this record telling me that she was 8 years old when she died?
