I have been trying to find the emigration record for my father in law Donato Maselli. I have checked Ancestry.com and the book Italians to America but can find no record for him. His naturalization papers say he came to New York on the ship Rotterdam from Rotterdam, Holland. Although, he must have ...

I am at my wits end and cannot get an answer from the Italian Consulate in NY nor from my representative's office.

My husband is applying for dual Italian citizenship in category one.

His mother's papers show five different names: Josie, Josepine, Josephine with her maiden name, Josephine with ...

I too have a discrepancy in names and dates on some of the documents I have acquired. If I do need a court order, does anyone know what kind of court I can apply to? I was at a Probate Court on another matter for citizenship but the judge said he could not help me. Any suggestions?

Thanks for a ...

I am a bit concerned about your problem with a Naturalization Paper. The Naturalization Papers I have for my father in law do have the petition and oath. However, his date of marriage is listed as July 4, 1930. The actual date is July 5. I have the marriage certificate to prove it. Do you think this ...

My husband is applying for dual Italian citizenship through his father in Category 1. His father was naturalized in 1936. My husband was born in 1931, so I assume he is eligible. Since he is applying through his father, does my husband have to give information about his grandfather or great ...

I would like to get a birth certificate, marriage certificate and death certificate for my mother n law's first husband. both deceased. The local vital statistics office tells me I cannot do it since my husband is not a relative. I know the dates of his birth and his marriage to my mother in law ...

I neglected to mention that we are applying in New York and that my husband's mother is now deceased.

Thanks very much for your reply. My husband's mother was widowed when she married a second time. Would her first husband's death certificate be sufficient to demonstrate she is the same person? Do I also need her first husband's birth certificate?

My husband is applying for Italian citizenship at the NY Italian Consulate in 2013. Here's the problem. The Consulate insists that all documents contain the same name for a person. My husband's mother was born in the United States. Her birth certificate lists her first name as Giuseppina along with ...

Help!!!

My husband is applying for Italian citizenship through his father and we have run into what seems like unsolvable problems.

His mother's birth certificate shows the Italian version of his mother's name. All other documents show the Americanization of her name. The Italian consulate says ...

I'm sorry to be so late in responding but I have been away for the past several weeks. I'm back now and ready to tackle the genealogy thing again.

You are a genius. You have garnered me more information than I have been able to uncover since 1989.

The passport application is definitely ...

Tesssa 78. Thank you so much for posting the above information. This about the only data I have after many years of researching. But I'll keep plugging away.

Again, many thanks.

JJ313 Thank yoo very much for copying the instructions from the NY Italian Consulate site. I really aprecate it. I'm in the process now of collecting all the documents.

I'm afraid I have another question for you. Two of our children will be applying at Boston and in New Zealand. So I am assuming ...

Now I know I am getting senile. I went t the link consnewyork.isteri.it. I clicked on Consular Servces (top middle). The next page op left had info on how to make an appointmentat the consulate. Top right had a list of services, the first Registry Office. I clicked on Citizenship (on this list ...

Thank you for the link But I must be getting senile. There is no info on the page, just the statement that "Much more information is available in English on this site." Am I missing something? The page is in English.
