S Angslongrotte Italy

[suski1304]

Hello,

I am very new to Italian Genealogy, and am very unfamiliar with Italian place names. I have a marriage license from 1899 from the State of Maine in the US which states that the groom's birthplace was "S Angslongrotte Italy." Does anyone know where this could be? Does S usually stand for San or Sud or something else? I have been unable to find anything close searching the internet.

Thank you,
Susan
