In the U.S., her surname seems consistently spelled with a single "m," but in Italy, it seems consistently double-m.

2. Nazzareno ALESSI, b. 7 Dec 1913

Christina had a sister named, Pasqua, which means Easter in Italian. Pasqualina is the diminutive. Is that the name that was intended?

Indexed "Settinnio," but the name is short one bump to be double-n. I think the year in Column 15 is "1902." Column 16 may refer to a foundry on Portsmouth Street.
