Vico Equense, Naples

Post by grndrgn125 »

I am trying to find the birth certificate of my great grandfather who was born in Vico Equense, Naples. I am searching the digitized files found on "http://dl.antenati.san.beniculturali.it" for the Stato civile italiano (quartieri di Napoli). The section for Naples lists a few districts: Avvocata, Chiaia, Fuorigrotta, Mercato,
Miano e Marianella, Montecalvario, Pendino, Porto, Posillipo,San Carlo all'Arena,San Ferdinando, San Giuseppe,
San Lorenzo, Stabilimento dell'Annunziata, Stella, Vicaria, and Vomero. Which of these districts does Vico Equense belong?

Grazie,

Dr Tom

Vico Equense is a comune in Naples province, not a section of the city of Naples.

If your ancestor was born between 1809-1865, you could check for his birth record here:

For the years 1901-1929, you can search this record set:

https://www.familysearch.org/search/cat ... %20Library

For the years 1866-1900, you might have to write to the comune directly as I don't believe that there is an online source for that period.

Here's a link to the email address of the comune if you need to write for a record. Try to narrow your search before contacting the office directly, and of course provide as much information as possible to them in your request.

I understand that Vico Equense is in the province of Naples and not within the city itself. I am looking for Italian Civil Records for birth, marriage and death during the period for the Guglielmo Primavera b. 16 Feb 1881. He immigrated from Naples to New York City November 1904. His father Emmanule Primavera and his mother was Carolina Macario. @TerraLavoro - thanks for the info about having to contact the commune myself for records after 1865.
