No luck contacting Galati, Messina

Post by Josie07M11 »

Hi everyone,

I've been trying for a few months to contact the Comune di Galati Mamertino, Messina but I haven't had a response yet. My great grandfather Ignazio Stagno was born in Galati on the 8 June 1893. I'm not sure if he and my g-grandmother Margherita Musarella were married there, but they had children in Giardini and I was able to visit his grave, also in Giardini, back in July this year. I want to know the names of his mother and father. My great aunt thinks they were born in Catanzaro, Calabria, but she doesn't know what town.

I've used the following email addresses to contact the comune. Perhaps I'm using the wrong ones..

info@pec.comune.galatimamertino.me.it
info@comune.galatimamertino.me.it

I couldn't find an email that addresses the anagrafe directly. Any help would be so amazing. This is the only blank strand of my mum's family tree and I'm desperate to fill it!

Thanks,
Josephine

Thanks Marty, I wanted to avoid that because I live in Australia and it'd take time for the records to get to me, let alone the awful family history centre hours in the centre near me (2 hours every week on a tuesday night) but I guess this is my only choice if galati won't respond to me. Thanks again :)
