Italian term or phrase: C/da (in address)
Hi,

I have come across this abbreviation - probably a really simple one, but I can't think of what it could be!

It appears twice in this text within addresses:

XXX deceduto a Taormina (ME) c/o ospedale YYY c/da Sirina il (date)

... via *** No. 16 c/da Marfaele....

I thought of comune, but this is usually comune di, not da.
Can someone put me out of my misery and enlighten me, please!
Thanks.
