Looking for Salvatore Conti from Vallelunga

[CiaoJudy]

Ciao! I am looking for birth and marriage records for Salvatore Conti. He was born in Vallelunga, Caltinesetta approx. 1875. Died in his 40's. Marriage to Ignatia (Agnes)Battaglia. Any direction and/or help would be wonderful. Just starting my search and any help would be appreciated. Salvatore & Agnes are my great grandparents. Went from Vallelunga to Independence, Louisiana/Ascension Parish.

I believe that he was born before 1875... I checked the births registrations of Vallelunga and the only Salvatore Conti I found is this one:
