Transcription of document

Post by esantin »

Hi all,

I'm currently transcribing/translating this document http://antenati.san.beniculturali.it/v/ ... 2.jpg.html and I'm not able to understand the profession of Biase Fiorenzano, the father of the child.

Could someone help?

Regards,
esantin

I'd say he was a "casaoglio ritirato" = "a retired grocer".
"Casaoglio" is the italian transliteration of a dialectal word.
This profession can also be found as "caciolio", literally, seller of cheese and oil.
