Procedures to write IT Ufficio dello Stato Civile?

Post by KathyLPV »

I have letters ready to send to various Italian Churches & Ufficio dello Stato Civile. But Steve Saviello & Dave Zerga ['97-'00] warned us NOT to send money first, but rather to send a self addressed [no stamp] envelope, and suggest you'll send a fee / donation when you get the papers. I'm using Dave's letters, somewhat modified.

I don't need any Certificates, an abstract will do. I am only looking for the DOB & DOD, & places of birth of my bisnonni. I have lots of data on my bisnonne. I posted on italiangenealogy.com before and was sent to antenati.san.beniculturali.it. for a document of one bisnonna. I've also searched the LSD site, but there is nothing on either of my bisnonni, only my bisnonne! And the anteneti site is too much to go through, especially if you don't know an exact year, date, or place. & can't read Italian.

So what is the new procedure to write for civil records? How do you do the mailing? What's the average cost or fee? I know it has to be in EUROs, but then how & where can you get them? What about sending a USD check?
Mille Grazie

Marty,
Thanks a lot for that. I wasn't sure if anything changed since Dave & Steve guided us. I figured you don't have to pay for civil records, just offer to send a donation for their efforts & postage. Glad you said I have to send an ID for them! Didn't know that. Drivers license is OK? Doesn't have my maiden name, but then it doesn't say GRASSI either . . .

Are you still looking for Francesco Lo PINTO Ferdinando GRASSI and Raffaele VIGNOLINI - Yes, I am. My bisnonni seem to vanished from any records. I did find Ferdinando's marriage record, but still no DOB or DOD, nor whether he was born in Otranto, Lecce or in Napoli, Campania. Francesco's the same, married in Bagheria [Palermo?], but no DOB or where he was born. He died in NYC & I think I have his DOD, got to go check it out.

I believe that Teresina's surname is La Bollita.
The declarant Francesco Paolo La Bollita is her uncle

Marty, Livio,
Che Bello! Magnifico! Unbelievable.

I never thought to look at anteneti for San Cherice, even though Francesco listed it as his "last residence" on his Ship manifest to the USA in 1900. [I saved that manuscript.] He died in NYC. But since he was in the Bersaglieri & moved a lot, I never thought to look anywhere but Bagheria, Palermo, Ravenna, or Napoli. My grandfather was born in Palermo & his brothers in Ravenna & Napoli.

I can't thank you two enough. I went to the pages you gave me, copied & saved them too, to look over, one more step in my hunt. You two, and this site are amazing. Every other site, I get niente. Here, people have found data & send the links to me - within a day or two! Love this site! Love you two!

Grazie mlle, Buon fortuna, & Vada con dio, Marty & Livio
Kathy Lo PINTO [GRASSI] VIGNOLINI

P.S. I did find the birth record for Amberto VIGNOLINI, with the right parents. & It had some of his father's [Alberto] brothers or cousins & ages. Now I don't know if I need to be writing these places, but may anyway, just to have a hard copy, & go further back. Thanks again fellas.

On both birth records it says of Raffaele Vignolini shoemaker resides in Filettole which is a suburb frazione of Prato so perhaps that's where he is from originaly from

This is getting to be one amazing week! First my bisnonni & possibly going back to my 4th Great Grandfather, from not even have a DOB for my 1st Great Grandfather! And now this, my husband's Grandfather's sisters birth record! The other one, Amberto I got before some how, maybe here. But this is Alberto's older brother. Alberto was born in 1879, that we know from other documents we have. We thought the brother's name was Umberto from some of those documents, but I guess his is a "northern" variation.

Funny, I tried to look up some of my other names on antenati, in cities I know they lived in & were born in, but I got no results. How any of you can do so, and so quickly is incredible!

'S been quite a busy week for me. Grazie mille, Marty.

Perhaps the first Alberto Vignolini died and they renamed the second baby the same name which is the norm in Italy. What was the first Alberto 1869 birth date?
