Hi
I think I have solved it I hope
Franceso Filippo Rotella was born to Giuseppe Rotella and Giulia Scozzafava on
9/16/1842

Filippo Rotella was born to Felice Antonio Rotella and Costantia Chiarella on
12/7/1850

The last part as I read it says
It is possible to get the data for Tommaso Saverio Rotella however they need to
have 150 Lire for format A4 and 300 Lire for format A3. Plus shipment or
postage. I hope this helps at least we tryed.
