Hello. I am looking to see if anyone can help me find out my 2nd great grandmother's parents names and actual place of birth. I know on immigration paperwork they sometimes just put the location they sailed from as where they were born. I have attached her death certificate which shows her married name and parents names which are hard to decipher.
Her married name is Brigida DeSimone
Birth date is I believe November 1, 1877
Birth place listed as Castellammare del Golfo, Trapani, Sicilia
Any help and any info is appreciated!

Actually, her birthdate I am uncertain of. Her date is different in immigration paperwork
