@mmogno

Grazia’s surname looks like La Marcha to me in the record, which may be the surname La Marca.

As to the surname Vivalacqua, I know that a few days ago there was a record I translated for a Bartolo whose name in the margin appeared as Vartolo, but even as Bartolo in the index. I believe Vivalacqua is the surname Bevilacqua, which is even in the early records for the nearby town of Menfi.
