Francesco Antonio Motta and Angela Fanelli 1832 Marriage

[dita531]

They are my 3rd great grandparents
TIA!
Below is what I have figured out so far:

Francesco Antonio Motta age 25 born in Letto Commune, a shepard living Strada San Giacomo,
Father: Giuseppe Nicola a mule driver living in Con Seco ?
Mother: Nicoletta Parrella

Angela Fanelli age 23 born in Laurenzana living in Strada San Vito
Father: Giuseppe (deceased) a farmer
Mother: Paulina Falotico

Is Letto Commune supposed to be Lettopalena?

Sorry, I'm confused... was he born Laurenzana then?
Family lore states that one of these people came from Spain so I'm trying to prove/disprove that. Thank you!

Yes, he was born in Laurenzana, according to this record. "detto comune" refers back to lines 5 and 6 on the left side of the record, where the town name is given. Possibly an earlier generation came from Spain, or family oral history might simply be incorrect.
