Thank you for Antonina's birth information. Could you please confirm the month and date of birth.

That's a good question where did they marry. Let me find out from a cousin.

Antonina's birth was on 27 May 1872 to Pasquale Basta, 30yo peasant farmer; and to his wife Pietra Ferrara, 28.

Can you tell me when and where their first child was born?
