Re: Ancestor with 2 wives?
How do you know the two Tommaso's are the same person? It sounds like you don't have the death record of either Tommaso, so you may not be able to confirm that. The most likely explanation is they aren't the same. If they are in fact the same, do you know for sure that Giacoma de Sanctis did not die...

Re: Finding living descendants
I do quite a bit of this research as well on the US side. It depends where they settled. The vast majority of my family came into the Boston port and settled outside of Boston, and the Registry of Vital Records in Boston is open to the public (and now, is free to visit) to go and look up birth, marr...

Re: What town does this say?
Incredible, thank you so much! The children I have for Gioacchino and Maria are listed there, plus several of the other families on that page are from Nocciano. How did you find these records? I'm not familiar with Brazil immigration records. I guess my next step is to look through the Brazilian bap...

Re: What town does this say?
The only info I can find is that Gioacchino and his daughter Lucia immigrated to Boston, Mass. in 1912, and Lucia got married and settled with her husband in Malden, Mass. As a Massachusetts native, I can't think of any towns near Boston that resemble "Bariry". There's another death record...

What town does this say?
Below are two death records in the comune of Nocciano (PE), #12 (Mario di Cesare) and #18 (Giovanni di Cesare), and I can't for the life of me figure out what town the records say they were born in. It looks like it says "nato in Baring". It could also say "Barires" or "Bari...

Re: legitimate and natural son at the same time?
I wouldn't read too much into this. Every baptism record I have read where the parents were married before the child was born said the child was "legitimate and natural." This includes when the parents were married in 1809 (where a civil record exists) and the child was born in 1810. I fee...

Re: Matrimoni, memorandum notificazioni ed opposizioni
Memorandum is one record (shorter), then about 2 weeks later they would file the notificazione (longer, more detailed). If there was opposition, it is usually written on the same page as the notificazione. At least in the records I've gone through, opposition is not common.

Re: Matrimoni, memorandum notificazioni ed opposizioni
They are marriage "banns" that had to be announced 3 times by law before the ceremony could occur. For genealogical purposes, they can be useful for 3 reasons: (1) They can show marriages that were supposed to occur, but did not (2) They can show marriages that occur in a town other than t...

Re: RE: ITALIAN PROVINCES DIGITIZED ON CDROM
I feel like we should be extraordinarily grateful that we have FamilySearch and Antenati at all and the fact that Italian civil records exist and with the level of detail they have in the first place. FamilySearch and the Italian Archives did not have to make these records available online for free ...

Re: Accuracy of Antenati (Italian Civil) records
Of all the pieces of information on a civil death record, yes birth place is probably the least accurate. In my work transcribing records for several towns in Abruzzo, I've found that records from 1865 and later tend to be almost always accurate on birth place, but when you go back to the 1810s, 20s...

Re: Death record - Berardino Della Piana - Torre de' Passeri
I'm wondering if he died in Torre de Passeri because his son Pietro della Piana got married to Maria Rosaria Luciani of Pescosansonesco, which is very close to Torre. It looks like Pietro and Maria Rosaria had a daughter Lucia della Piana in Torre de Passeri in 1884. I also see his daughter Filomena...

Church of SS. Gio: Battista e Gio: Evangelista of the Comune of Luco
27 Dec 1801, Franciscus Justinus d'Angelo of this Parish SS. Giovanni Battista and Evangelista, age 70
Unfortunately those aren't the names of his parents. They are the two saints the parish is named for.
