All good, Erudita. I agree, deciphering Sergio's name was tough. I did however, have an advantage because I remembered I had previously translated a record pertaining to Lucrezia and Mauro, which included their respective fathers' names, so was able to check my previous translation. I could see that the name probably began with "S" and ended in "gio". Will send you an email over Easter.
