Hi. My great grandfather was born may 1851 married to Inez Keller. He was born in Catania, sililia. I am trying to obtain his birth certificate. His name is Francisco Baccellia. Anyone have this info?

Hi!

FamilySearch (free) has civil records for the comune of Catania, province of Catania online (non-indexed, in Italian)

"Italy, Catania, Catania, Civil Registration (Comune), 1820-1905"

It's hard to obtain the info on screens.

I couldn't find any Baccella or Baccellia in the 1846-1855 index for Catania. Are you sure he was born in the town of Catania, or was he born in some village/town in the province of Catania?

[Baccelv]

Hi... I just learned his name is Francisca Baccelli.

I went on ancestry.com and found he migrated to New York in april 30 1875 from Liverpool. The document indicated his origin is Italy. My family in the States believes he was from catania. I'm not sure.

Do have a death record with his town of birth on it?

Do you have a subscription to ancestry?
I would contact the owner of the family pages and find out where she got his birth date and location?
It could save you a lot of time

Go to your local library's webpage (type the library name in google )
Most have a section for genealogy or for available databases
See if ancestry is listed

If it isn't call your local Family History Center - they should also have ancestry

Ancestry also offers a free trial (with a credit card) it's a great way to get started, just remember to cancel!
