Can you translate Birth Records?
I have found two birth records. Can someone translate these? Does it seem likely that this could be the same family?

The 1859 image has two records; which one are you looking at?
The 1869 image has three records; which one are you looking at?

Thank you for looking at this and for clarifying.
1859: upper right, looks like Raffaele Rizzuto's birth record
1869: upper left, looks like Raffaele Rizzuto's birth record
I'm curious if this is the same family and the gal in 1859 died in childhood and they used the name for the next daughter. I'm not sure. I'm still very new to Italian research, so I don't know how common the names Luigi and Angela are and the surnames of Rizzuto and Pirillo.

Raffaella Rizzuto (female) born 31 Jan 1859 to Luigi Rizzuto, age 34, and his wife Angela Maria Pirillo, age 30
Raffaela Rizzuto (again, female) born 29 Mar 1869 to Luigi Rizzuto son of deceased Pietro, age 44, and his wife Angela Maria Pirillo daughter of deceased Carmine, age 38
On its face it sure seems like the same family; you would want to comb through the marriage records from say 1850 through 1869 to see how many instances there are of a Luigi Rizzuto marrying an Angela Maria Pirillo. It's not a very big town. I wouldn't be surprised if you found a death record for the 1859 Raffaela and they just recycled the name.

I didn't find a death record for Raffaela between 1859-1869. I did find the marriage record for Luigi Rizzuto and Teresa Pirillo in 1852. As I combed through the marriage records from 1852-1869, I didn't see any other with those names. Luigi and Rizzuto seem to not be very common in this town. Pirillo is very common, but didn't ever seem to be with Angela or Teresa. Any other suggestions to see if this is the same family or do you think it's safe to assume they are the same?

At this point I think you have to go with an inference based on what the available records show.
