In addition to the above... there is a notation in the margin indicating Michele Sepe's marriage on 29 April(?) 1920 to Antonia Carlucci

I was just slightly faster Tessa. :)
I also wanted to add that Anna Maria's age is not included and to suggest that the poster might like to search the marriage records that are on line at Family Search for their marriage record which would give more details:

(The allegati would include even more details.)

You are very welcome.
Here is the Pubblicazioni (Marriage Banns) for Matteo and Anna Maria. They were both aged 23 so estimated birth year for both is 1861. Your records start at 1861 so hopefully their birth records will be amongst them.

Marriage Bann No 5: Matteo Sepe and Anna Maria Travierso
Dated 24 February 1884, 10 am, Barile
Appearing were:

Matteo Sepe (Groom), 23 (1861), farmer, son of Michele, farmer, and Maria Michela Calviello, farmer, both residing Barile

Anna Maria Travierso (Bride), 23 (1861), farmer residing Barile, daughter of Domenico Travierso, farmer, and the late Neicoletta (Sp?) Parnofiello, residing Barile when alive.

Witnesses: Giovanni Barbaro, 23 and Raffaele Bollettino, 46, both farmers.
Banns were posted 2 March, 9 March and 13 March 1884.

You can look for the actual marriage record here: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/T ... 1,55932401

Good luck.
