Trying to request Birth certs from Schignano, Como

Post by dczitell »

My Wife's GGF is from Schignano in the Como area, and I am trying to request their Birth certificate Extracts, but I can't seem to find an address where I should write to. I found the website for Schignano, but it doesn't have an address on it.

I have requested the Certificates via the emails listed on the site, but have gotten no response. Can anyone help me find a physical address to write to in Schignano to request BCs? Thanks for any help!

I am a member of Ancestry.com, and I found the record there. I need to request an Estratto for citizenship purposes. I wrote once (physically) and received no response. Was about to write again. Any tips?

Did you send a photo Id with your request,I would send the copies of the records you found and tell them you need a free paper extract of the record for you are filing for dual citzenship. What records do you have from ancestry.com
