Re: Is anyone compiling a master list of indices by town
The birth, marriage and death "road maps" for Termini Imerese have been updated to cover the 1820-1861 records on the Antenati web site and, in parallel, the ones on FamilySearch that are only available for viewing at Family History Centers.

From a Windows PC, you can capture the screen image with Alt-PrntScrn. You can then use paint or a similar tool to save the captured image to disk.

Re: Latin date oddities
Actually, I was referring to the "settima" in the first example and the "Octavii"(?) in the second example. Without those, the dates would appear to translate simply as "10 August 1789" and "13 January 1805", respectively.

Latin date oddities
On several baptismal records, I'm encountering what appears to be an extra number in the portion of the date before the year. See the image below for specific examples. The second example suggests that the day precedes the month, but what is the significance of the number between the month and the y...

Re: Italian Detto or clan name
I'd have to see an example from the documents you are looking at to confirm this, but I believe "detto" should be read as the English "ditto", "same as above", or "the aforementioned.

Whoops. The middle link above (record 289, "page" 1461) should be:

Re: Biondo/Brocato/Catalano - hit a wall
Tessa, can you look at the birth record for a Pasquale Biondo that I found on page 222? It's record 198. Child Pasquale Biondo was born 28 June 1864 at 10 AM, presented at the town office at 1 PM by Maria Corro, 76 year old midwife. Mother was Francesca Brocato, age 28 Father was Antonino Biondo, a...

Re: USCIS Genealogy Index Request - Wait Time..
The first image is the "Best Reproducible Copy Available" from USCIS, taken from a duplicate.
The second image is the same document as provided by NARA, taken from the original. Note the better quality and the lack of gratuitous redacting.

Re: Need help with birth "transcript" in 1901 Allegati
There also appears to be some hint that the bride was originally viewed as the daughter of Giuseppe de Cefalu. Misinterpretation on my part here. Looking at the family tree, I think that the person who appeared before the town official, "Stefana Papa fu Giuseppe de Cefalu", is the daughte...

Need help with birth "transcript" in 1901 Allegati
In the 1901 marriage Allegati for what appears to be one of my great aunts, there is an unusual entry in place of the standard birth transcript. Rather than being the usual copy of an entry from the "Nati" records, this seems to be a document asserting that the birth was somehow not proper...

Re: A Christmas Present - "road maps" to FamilySearch records for Cefalù, Termini Imerese and Villaurea
The "road maps" for Cefalù have been updated to include the recently exposed digital records for 1820-1859. These records currently may only be viewed at a Family History Center or an affiliate library. As my access to my local FHC is limited, corrections to these tables on the Wiki (see a...
