Re: Documentation Requirements for Ancestor with Name Change

So just providing a follow up in case anyone has a similar situation.

I had my Italian Citizenship appointment at the London consulate. I was informed the naturalisation record was NOT sufficient evidence to link the Pasquale Svelto mentioned there to the one in the Birth Certificate, mostly due to ...

Re: Documentation Requirements for Ancestor with Name Change

Hi dalsanto3,

I am actually still in process of going through all the documentation process. Honestly it's been an on and off project for me, mostly due to hickups along the way. While I haven't officially gone through the citizenship meeting yet to confirm, from my understanding I should be okay ...

Re: Name discrepancies and "One and the Same Person" court orders

Cristina,

Are you saying you just write a letter and have it notarized at your local jurisdiction? I'm a little confused as it seems like this could easily be abused? Is it that simple?

Thanks!

Hi everyone.

I've translated the first part of my GGF's birth registration, but am struggling to translate the second part which has a lot of Italian handwriting.

Re: documents - date of birth discrepency

"Generally, a minor error on the death certificate is not an issue since the information is often provided by a bereaved relative who may not possess all the correct data."

mler, can you comment further on this? I have a similar issue on my Grandfather's death certificate where his mother's maiden ...

Re: Can I be recognized as an Italian Citizen?

Is your father American? If one of your parents is American and you reported a birth abroad that has no impact on your Italian citizenship. I'm confused why your father had to go through courts to do this unless there is more to the story.

Re: Via Maddonella Carpino Italia

yeah that's the street, I've seen it on Google Maps. I am interested to know if there would be any record of tenancies you could look into to find out who was living on that street around the time of my GGF's birth in 1891.

Re: Pasquale Svelto Birth Registration

thanks for that Marty. My Italian isn't as bad as I thought then as that was what I was thinking it was saying but wasn't too sure.

Now I just need to find the Christening record to see if that proves any help in who his parents were!

Pasquale Svelto Birth Registration

Hi all,

I need help translating this document. What little Italian I know only goes so far when it comes to handwriting.

Re: Documentation Requirements for Ancestor with Name Change

I have the manifest of Pasquale Svelto. In it he lists his nearest living relative in Italy as his aunt with the same surname as his supposed mother (D'Avolio). It may not be slam dunk evidence but I would certainly assume it acts as supporting evidence along with other items.

Really, I'm ...
