Title: Deciphering cursive handwriting of names on another Italian cert please!
Post by: jen56johns on Tuesday 11 August 20 05:27 BST (UK)

I'm becoming an expert on trawling through Italian documents, but still haven't conquered the handwriting.

Trying to decipher the two circled parts please. The first is the father's name, the second is the mother's surname.

Thanks for your assistance!

Oh wow! Thank you. The mother's surname was all squashed up so it didn't look like Leandri and if father was unknown then that makes sense.

Thank you for all your help!
