San Fele, Potenza

Post by danielle1118 »

I have mailed 2 requests for birth records, but haven't received a response. I also tried emailing the commune, but it comes back undeliverable. so frustrated... does anyone have any other suggestions? Can someone tell me if they had success receiving documents from San Fele? :(

Thank You

How long ago did you mail your requests? Some comunes will take 6 months or more to respond, and others not at all :-)

Here is the address format again... Maybe the third time will be the "charm" :D

Ufficio dello Stato Civile
Via Mazzini, 7
85020 San Fele (PZ)
ITALY


Be sure to make your request in Italian...

I also emailed the email given on that Commune di San Fele sight and it came back twice. Someone on another site told me "I just checked and the reason why your email bounced back could be because San Fele Municipality, as some other town, use a type of email address named PEC (Certified Email Post) . It's a type of email system used by Italian public administrations and it doesn't work as the standard international emails."
We told about this to the Basilicata Region to explain them that in this way, these Municipalities are not reachable from abroad! But nothing changed...

I went through 1868-1873 indexes of San Fele Potenza online atfamilysearch.org no Giuseppa De Cillis. I think possible she was born in another town in Potenza possible Pescopagano or Lavello

Thank you for looking. Her "siblings" birth records were located, I think the problem with locating the birth record is that they were foundlings. When they travelled to U.S. they assumed the surname of Ricigliano. After the marriage of Angelina Ricigliano and Giuseppe DeCillis, in the U.S. they then took the DeCillis surname.
