In the year 1808, on the first day of April.
I, Francesco Valentini, parish priest of this parish of Saints Michael the Archangel and Nazario in the land of Gadio, baptised a child born on 31 March to Domenico Antonio Guidotti and Caterina Torri, spouses of this parish, who was given the name Giovanni Battista. The godmother was Domenica Maria, daughter of Filippo Torri of the above-mentioned parish.

Thank you mmogno!

The phrase "in the land of Gadio" would this be and old way of saying the land or territory of Gaggio Montano?
