Marriage and Birth information for Di Stasio

[jmorgan9]

I am looking for birth and marriage information for Phillip Di Stasio.
He was born 1870 in Montefalcone di val fortore, Benevento and for some reason there doesn't seem to be records in the family history site for this time period.
His father is Alfonzo Maria De Stasio and I think his mother is Maria Filomena D'Onofrio
as I found other children with this. But he listed his mother as unknown on his second marriage certificate and I want a record. I am also looking for his marriage--I believe he married in Italy to Magdalena Conti(Conde)(Conte) But I can't find anything on that. Is there anyone that could get these records, or how do I go about finding them? I believe this is a small town would contacting a church help?

Yes, I have seen all of these records, there is so much confusion with spelling. But I was hoping to get a marriage record or a birth record for either. Do you know why the 1870 and up records seem to be missing from the Family Search site??

on familysearch the civil records microfilms of Montefalcone di Val Fortore, they are from 1809 to 1860 , so no helpful... the civil records after 1860 are in Benevento archive; and also in Montefalcone di Val Fortore obviously.. if you wish the marriage certificate you can write in Montefalcone di Val Fortore a this address:
Ufficio di Stato Civile
Piazza Medaglia d'Oro, 2
82025 MONTEFALCONE DI VAL FORTORE (BN)
ITALY
