Post by JamesBianco »

Does anyone know a good source for some older out of print genealogical and historical books for Sicily ? I am most interested in the Palermo Province. Thanks Jim :)

Jim, for genealociacl what you means... here are
I RIVELI DEL 1607 A RAGUSA - NUMERAZIONE DELLE ANIME E DESCRIZIONE DEI BENI
http://www.press.sicilia.it/news-sicilia.cfm?id=1535
here are some Catasto onciario book of various towns, some book about riveli delle anime of sicilian community and more; insert the word in: Esegui la RICERCA PER TITOLO box( catasto or onciario or riveli etc or Palermo etc) and so you see the results

Wow...that is an amazing resource! I wish every town had their Riveli of 1607 published. Unfortunately I only see Ragusa listed. Thank you very much for that link.

Jim :)
