There is a lot to say here and if I were you I would purchase the easy read book Italian Genealogical Records by Trafford R. Cole. it is not expensive and can send you on your way at your speed and convenience. If it was a matter of one or two websites then it would not be a problem but the research you will want to do in earnest is what I suggest. Peter

For starters try www/paginebianche.it and insert the surname of interest in the first line and the town in the third line and click CERCA for anybody in that town with the selected surname who maybe residing there. if so, a listing will show up. Peter
