i am guessing they took their surname from a former area trapani
i am told many did that to erase they were of jewish descent.
so is di trapani their taken current surname?

Please translate. this format is different

Antonino, son of deceased ("qnd") Sebastiano and Antonina Di Trapani (my guess is that this is their current surname, not their origin.
Tee place of origin turned into a surname for people who moved around (not only jews) when surname still did not exist on a regular basis.
What you say about jews is true about some specific towns, such as Di Castro, Di Segni, Piperno, and others
Liberata, daughter of Agostino and ? Russo, from Santa Elena.

thanks
do you know the date of this record

[PippoM]

There is no date of actual marriage, but the 3rd posting of banns was on Aug 28, 1638, so, I'd say a few days later.

When i enter it into Family Search a place pops up as a selection named Santa Elena, Ecuador.

Did you see what mmogno and I posted under locations in Italy re Santa Elena? It is a parish in Corleone. If that parish had a scheduling conflict, or the priest was ill, etc, it’s possible that the parish of San Martino, also in Corleone, allowed the marriage to take place there instead. If that was the case, there would have been publications posted in the bride’s parish of Santa Elena as well but, unfortunately, those records are not online.
