Help translating documents

[aerandel]

Hello! I have two documents that appear to be possible ancestors of mine, and I'd love some help in translating them. I don't know Italian, and I'm also having trouble reading the script in some places which makes it more complicated. The first document appears to be a birth record for Lorenzo Celli and a possible twin, maybe a Rosa Celli? The first page has them on the right side, and I think it extends on to a second page so I will include that as well. The other document looks to be a birth record for Raffaele Celli, also on the right side of the page. Any information that anyone can decipher for me would be appreciated! The names are about all I can recognize. Thank you!!!

Yes, definitely twins, and I understand from the record that they were both presented to the official by the midwife together – I just can't get the exact wording correct. Here is the basic translation of their respective birth records. I'll leave someone else to translate Raffael's as I need to go out shortly.

Birth Record # 38 Lorenzo Celli (First Twin)

Recorded on 27 March 1866 Bagnoli Irpino

Angela Frasea, 69, levatrice (midwife), living in this town presented a male baby, the first born twin, born 26 March at 3 a.m. Father is Antonio Celli son of deceased Vincenzo, age 40, farmer and (the mother is) Maria Coletti, daughter of Domenico, farmer, living in this town. Name of street – Strada Caula. The baby was given the name Lorenzo.

I have had a look at Raffaele's birth record. I'm finding it quite faint to read but I've had a go at it anyway:

Birth Record #87 – Raffaele Celli

Record is dated 14 September 1866, 6 pm, Bagnoli Irpino

Appearing was Aniello Celli, son of deceased Domenico, aged 40, farmer, living in this comune (town), to present a male baby born 14 September at 7 am, to his wife Angela Basile, daughter of Raffaele, living with him, in his house, in this town at Strada Casale. The baby was given the name Raffaele.

Witnesses:
Tommaso Frasea, son of deceased Raffaele, age 40, farmer
Giovanni Gargano, son of deceased Lorenzo, 28, farmer

Angela,
Thank you so much! My great-grandparents were named Celli/Cella and I'm finding that there are tons of extended family from that area that I haven't been aware of. These records definitely fit in there somewhere! I appreciate the help very much!!
