Help with translation of a 1868 birth record.

[MascheroniBR]

Hello Everyone!

Recently I managed to get a copy of my GGM's birth record, dated from 1868!
I would really appreciate if someone helped me translating it into english!
It's a big document, but I'm looking forward to get a full translation.
This is really important to me!

Here's the link to the document:

That's weird Marty!! I asked a friend to browse the forum and he could see the picture! Maybe regional restricions...

Anyway, I uploaded the file to a private server! Now you should be able to see the document!

Otherwise, I could send to you via e-mail!

Thanks!

I think Marty is having trouble because of the picture format you saved it in (png versus jpg)

The image opened for me, but went directly to Photoshop instead of my default viewer...

On 5 March 1868 at noon before the official at the town hall appeared Angelo Lavelli, son of Francesco and deceased Angela Rocca, age 32, a peasant farmer born and residing in the town; to present a female child born on the 4th of March of the current year at 10 PM to his wife Celestina Criggia(sp?), and to whom they gave the name Angela Maria.
Witnesses to this presentation were:
Giuseppe Lavelli, son of deceased Paolo and of Teresa Garanzou(sp?), age 45; and Angelo Piranova, son of Francesco and of Catterina Carita, age 43.

Right column notes the marriage of Angela Maria on 5 January 1890 to Francesco Gaetano Mascheroni...

I believe the surnames are slightly different so Angela Maria's mother is Celestina CRIPPA.
The first witness' mother is Teresa GUAZZONI.
The second witness is Angelo PIROVANO and his mother is Catterina CARITA' (with accent on the last A).
All these surnames are quite common in the area.

Sorry but there aren't parents, date and place of birth for Celestina. The only thing I can add is that Angelo and Celestina's house was located in Beverate, a rural area just out of town but still part of Brivio.

The "sp" indicates that I was not sure of the spelling

However, Ada has clarified the proper spelling for you

So, witnesses were:

Giuseppe Lavelli
Angelo Pirovano

No information on their relationship with the family? I mean... Giuseppe was probably the child`s uncle I presume... Angelo, no idea!!

I'll try locating Brivio's Parish Priest in order to at least try finding a marriage document from Celestina Crippa and Francesco Lavelli... is it a good call??

Giuseppe could not be the child's uncle. To be so, he had to be the father's brother. As you can see Angelo Lavelli and Giuseppe Lavelli had different parents....
Witnesses could be relatives or just friends. If there was a relationship with the family this was usually not mentioned.

There is a church in Brivio and one in Beverate di Brivio. The Priest is the same for both and these are the addresses:

Molto Reverendo Don Nando Gatti
PARROCCHIA SS. SISINIO MARTIRIO ED ALESSANDRO
Via SS. Patroni
23883 BRIVIO (LC)
Italy

Molto Reverendo Don Nando Gatti
PARROCCHIA SS. MARGHERITA E SIMPLICIANO (Beverate di Brivio)
Via G. Prinetti, 14
23883 BRIVIO (LC)
Italy

or

e-mail: donnando@brivioebeverate.it

Good luck!

OMG i got confused with the names!! LOL!! Sorry, of course they couldn` t be brothers!!

I`ll try reaching the priest via e-mail first... I managed to get a prompt reply from Cairate`s Parish Priest, they air mailed me Baptism and Marriage Records from my GGF, Mascheroni Gaetano, who was married with the Child described on this very thread, Lavelli Angela!

Thanks a lot, your help is much appreciated!!!
