Translation of Marriage Record

[stargazer200529]

I am translating a marriage record and I could really use some help.

"Dinanziame Cataldo Morgese assessore pel Sindaco Ufficiale dello Stato Civile del Commune suddetto lir condario e Provincia di Bari, e alla presenza di Nicola Orofino fu Vito di anni quarantotto, musico e di Stefano Procacci fu Pasquale di annu quarantuno uirleam fo domiciliati Casamassima, testimone diechi dai dichiaranta in azzrefso delignati"

This is what I have so far...

"Before me Cataldo Morgese municipal mayor of the official civil state of the town previously mentioned in the province of Bari, is presented Nicola orphaned to the late vito of 48, music(?)"

I would appreciate it if anyone could correct any errors for what I have so far and help me finish it. I got a little confused toward the end.

Thanks!

Your translator has translated Nicola's surname "Orofino" as "orphaned." Nicola is the son of deceased Vito, and is 48 years old. Could the word after his age be "musicista?"

It would be MUCH better if you could just post the image! Try postimage.org and copy and paste the forum link in this post.

I had trouble uploading it because of the file size. I had to take down some the quality. Let me know if this doesn't work and I can try something else.

Thanks for your help

I attempted my own translation, I didn't get very far, and I don't think some of it is right.


The year 1874 on the 11 of August at 8 in the afternoon at the Office of the Civil State for the town of Casamassima.
Before me Cataldo Morgese, municipal mayor of the official civil state of the town previously mentioned in the province of Bari, is presented Nicola orphaned to the late vito of 48, musician and of Stefano Procacci of the late Pasquale of 41 years, both sides living in Casamassima, were chosen to witness the declaration ?
I am ? Nicola Fortunato, more than thirty years single, a peasant born in a house in Casamassima, son of the late Vito Leonardo and of the living Vita Grazia Calisa, seamstress living with her daughters.
And Cassandra Lusca, single more than twenty four years, a seamstress born in a house in Casamassima, daughter of Francsco and Angela Laudo, peasants living with the daughter and in which the intent of joining together in matrimony ?
The certificate that I have presented ?

So is this an intent to marry?

[liviomoreno]

I believe it is the actual marriage record and to be sure 110% the second page is needed.
The last paragraph in this page states:
"I have read to the spouses the art. #130, 131,# and 132# of the Civil Code and then the spouses have declared, one after the other, in the presence of the witnesses, that they want respectively"
The second page should read
"take the other one as spouse and I have declared them to be husband and wife..."
