Rosaria Falco (the second)

What the registers say

• birth — 15 Mar 1821 , Arienzo, strada Camellara
  “A SECOND ROSARIA, BORN TWO YEARS TO THE DAY AFTER THE FIRST ONE DIED. Act 22: «L'Anno mille ottocento ventuno, il dì QUINDICI del mese di MARZO, ad ore tredici, avanti di Noi CLAUDIO CIMMINO Sindaco … è comparso GIUSEPPE FALCO, di anni TRENTOTTO, di professione CONTADINO, domiciliato in questo Comune, strada CAMELLARA, quale ci ha presentato una FEMINA … che la stessa è nata da GELSOMINA VIGLIOTTA sua moglie legittima, di anni TRENTASETTE … nel giorno QUINDICI del mese di Marzo, anno corrente, alle ore DIECI … il nome di ROSARIA». Witnessed by GENNARO RIVETTI, twenty-one, of strada Monticello de' Cappuccini, and AGOSTINO CIOFFI, forty-eight, of strada Camellara.
  
  The first Rosaria died on 15 MARCH 1819. This one is born on 15 March 1821 — the same day of the same month, two years later. The coincidence is recorded and not explained. This household reuses a dead child's name as a matter of course, and so does its neighbour: two Raffaele, two Pasquale, two Antonia, two Maddalena, two Giovanni are already on this site.
  
  WORK-LIST ROW 42 IS NOT ANSWERED BY THIS. That row asks where the FIRST Rosaria's birth act is, and it is still in none of the registers for 1816–1819. What this act does is make the second Rosaria a documented person and confirm that the first was a distinct child.”
